[QUOTE="JimBoIHN, post: 614040, member: 41594"] Didn't you forget the alternative most of us would like to see? Businesses with a conscience, a sense of right and wrong, fair play, let the best man win, friendly competition...........Those are pretty much gone . Think an upstart company will jump in and kick *** with tie rod ends at 2 X cost? No way, too much red tape, couldn't find customers anyway, Ford only buys from their friends, good ol boys only buy from each other, capitalism just doesn't work here any more. Too much greed, restraint of trade, government interference and red tape..........and honestly, the American consumer is so stupid and lazy that he gets pretty much what he deserves-to be ripped off. As to the 8 grand car, I bought a Hyundai Accent in 2011, a 2010 model for about 12 grand. Nice car, CD player and some pretty good features, everything that I need. Not quite 8 grand I admit, but a 2010 Elantra at less than 15 grand purchased at the same time. It appears to me that capitalism has been grasped by all our competitors, other countries like Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea............Just look at the ammo that's available from other countries selling dirt cheap right here in our own back yard. Why can't Remington compete with them? They don't feel that they need to, and so far they haven't had to. That's why most of the tech support is being handled by India, Puerto Rico, Phillipines......Those people get it. [/QUOTE]
