      It might sound well and grand to us, but you try and convince the big-wigs who are making hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars in the big companies to cut back on their profits. Not gonna happen. Corporations are greedy. Greedy people may try and look like they're doing something good for the environment (and maybe they are) but ultimately they won't make any decision unless they make more money.

              I know what you are saying... I have a strong line of greed in me myself, love the money! Love looking at my bank and seeing how much I have!

              but we can do small things to help out.

                It might be a good idea to enrol in an economics class before you make comments that prove your lack of knowledge. Tromping Maniac basically answered your post.

                Yes it helps companies with Cheap labour, but if you would walk into Taiwan offering to pay employees $150/day, it would drive their social system through the floor.

                    12 of the 16 most polluted cities in the world are located in China.

                      Because GM/Ford/Honda/VW cars built in china are not exported out of china. We (north american's) do not get chinese built GM/Ford/Honda/ or VW's.

                        This made history this week as the first Honda's made in China to be exported to Europe, so things maybe changing.

                          Should be interesting to see how Honda's quality does. Even if they keep tight controls I think it will need to be micromanaged like crazy to keep their reputation high (Not that I've seen any kind of scenario like this or anything )

                          If I DO buy a GM/Chev it will be a quad cab 3/4 ton with a duramax anyway, pretty sure those are still made in N/A

                            Is that honda pictured above, actually a full out Honda, or is it just a re-badged something-else?

                            I am amazed if it is a true 100% Honda.

                              Its a Honda Jazz, I think it is all Honda, mostly for the european market.

                                who cares... why dont we just boycott everything. when it all crumbles to the ground, the next group of moneymakers will be there waiting to do it all over again. i've already stopped brushing my teeth, washing in general, i like to wear garbage now too, but i cant get away from that made in (insert country here) label i find on everything.

                                deep down, we all think like james! and given the opportunity.....

                                p.s.my nikes are falling apart, how are yours?
                                and i hope tunas 3/4 ton dually helps with the smog too.
