So I have to pay the exorbitant prices of US tire manufacturers for less quality? Great. This will be funny since We OWE trillions to China in loans to keep us afloat, it would serve the Idiot right for china to call in the debt

Call it in and we have nothing to hand over. What then? Nothing.

It needs to be balanced. Unless you want to see factory workers in the USA making $1 an hour or per day, something needs to change.

What needs to change is that we need to become more efficient and competitive, BFG, a GM that I know from Discount tire told me that according the BFG rep that they make about 95% profit per tire on average before the dealers get involved and then its marked up another 50%. Us companies need to become leaner
