This is my flag, and I'm loyal to it and all that it represents. Period.
If the gov't were to abandon those principles, they would lose my loyalty, but the gov't can't change what Old Glory symbolizes; the the principles upon which our country was founded.
Our flag is a flag of the people, not of the government.
So yes, I suppose my loyalties are to a piece of fabric.
Who says I'm only talking about cars? It's pretty rare, but you can still find little things with "Made in the USA" printed on them, and I would gladly pay more for that.
But as far as cars go... there isn't one car made past 2000 that I like anyway
No, that's like going to the same church your entire life and never even putting a dime in the plate.
Our economy has gone to shit. If you're in the market for a vehicle anyway, the least you can do is buy an American car. There are plenty of American cars that can do everything your rice burner does.
i put plenty of change in the plate. any time i buy parts i try my hardest to buy made in the usa to support the economy, ive even returned parts for just that reason. but when it comes to a car that is a long time investment ( i use that term loosely) im going to buy something that is going to last and appeals to me. whether that be chevy ford dodge or toyota. i personally like toyotas due to the nice hp curve, decent gas mileage and ability to tow our trailer with ease. its a bonus that it is made in texas, by texans. sure some of the money goes over seas but it also supplies americans with jobs in this tough economy. toyota also will pay laid off employees to do local volunteer work or any kind of community service rather than just fire them. that was also a big factor.
