		<description>Thank you for providing this forum to express our outrage over the ugly turn this country has taken these past several months (years actually). A truly free enterprise system requires the demise of any &quot;species&quot; that has proven unfit to evolve and meet the current demand and economic climate. This way, the assets &amp; labor of a failed enterprise can then be arsorbed by those able to meet &amp; conquer the challenges of survival. To have our government step in and alter the fate of any enterprise in a free market system is an abomination &amp; a threat to our existence in a free America. 

I support the proposed boycott, and I like to challenge everyone to reconsider their definition of &quot;american&quot;. Having a post office box address in Detroit, Michigan does not really qualify any of the &quot;big three&quot; to be considered an american auto manufacturer. I believe anyone with the courage to challenge this notion &amp; perform a bit of research will find these organizations to be less &quot;american&quot; than Honda, Toyota &amp; Nissan (etc)...by virtue of the % of parts manufactured and the amount of competitive employment right here on american soil. While I&#039;m proud that Ford has not gone over to the dark side as of yet...we as americans need to consider what is truly best for America each &amp; every time we purchase goods and services. Any organization that that helps put food on american tables &amp; helps us to keep our slice of real estate in this great country is OK in my book. However, let&#039;s be careful where our assumptions lead us in this endeavor. This isn&#039;t our grandfather&#039;s auto industry any longer.</description>
