Globalization has not led to lower new car and truck prices however this may have controlled net price increases ...

Give the "Devil" his due ...

The newer auto assembly lines are highly robotized where possible. You have to look at the actual job losses -- the skills retained and the marginally skilled worker negatively affected.




We need Governments that tell China to buy more or sell less. Look at how they've destroyed US decent jobs over the last 30 years. What happens when China decides to build more cars?
