I'm reading Tramp Royale by Robert Heinlein it's a travalogue detailing his trip around the world in 1953-54. In stead of just sightseeing he tends to look at each country in a geo-political manner. One of the points he raises is the fact that one of the most universally coveted pieces of wealth in the world is the detroit automobile. Fifty years sure makes a difference G.M and Chrysler can't give away their product and Ford is only just now starting to make new headway. Detroit became compaisant sure that they would always have the advantage letting the competition pass them up. If we aren't advancing and perfecting our industries someone will be more than happy to take advantage.
Now is the time for America's industrial giants to rededicate their businesses to being the best in the world being American isn't good enough anymore.
