Thats what President Bush gave the Automobile Exects. the other day. To me that wouldnt finish my fries and super sized value meal. In my local area in the past 30yrs I saw a vast drop in employment in my area. In the day I Marine City, Mi. 1900's it was the ship building capital of the world, with unlimited vast oak trees to help with the effort. In the 1940's we had Motor Valve Co. making valves for tractors and cars and assisting in War Time Effort, we also had the Detroit Gasket CO. that employed the other half of the city. To the south of me we had the Chris Craft Boat Works in Algonac, Mi., to the North Diamond Chrystal Salt Co. And a Coco-Cola bottling works in St. Clair. Mi, to the North West we had the New Haven Foundry Co. that made engine blocks for Ag and the Constrution Industry. At I-75 and Mt.Elliot Ave . in Detroit is the old Packard Assembly plant, its 5 stories tall and 3 miles long, it made the bumpers, radio knobs, and seats, and assemeled in ONE plant! How many jobs? Folks we lost them ALL. We despratly NEED a turn around! Guys We are in a one state recession! They blame it on the unions, they blame it on fuel prices, they blame it on Michigan putting all its eggs in one basket. My 2cents worth is that NAFTA hurt Michigan in a wortst way that we can never get back to. Please give me your 2cents worth....DTURKE
