Link please.

And what kind of plants? Will those plants make products for China?

BTW...Should the Japanese, Koreans and Germans remove their U.S. plants?

The only problem i'd have is if they close a U.S. plant and reopen it in China.

Oh, and BTW...HELL YEA i'm glad that we bailed them out. Absolutely.

4 powertrain facilities to be constructed there too.

So, opening some plants in China INSTEAD of the U.S. is OK?

Here's your link:

Peter Navarro and Greg Autry: Commies in Cadillacs: GM Turns Chinese

Yep, GM is opening manufacturing plants in China - to manufacture vehicles for both Chinese and US customers.

Thanks for taking our tax dollars to China!

Don't worry, economics will work its way out:

New Study Finds China Manufacturing Costs Rising to US Level

PS I bet money due to Chinese laws that those four plants will be producing cars for Chinese consumers only.

PPS BTW the manufacturing coming back to the US is commonly now for robotic plants (which operate now around $3.50 an hour equivalent to a worker), so get our skills up folks to repair the terminator...I mean machines.

I'll bet that is the case, too. After all, Japanese and Korean auto makers have actually opened factories in the US to build their cars for the US market because the transport of those vehicles is a large expense... I don't think there will be much outsourcing of car manufacturing, where those are built there just to be shipped back here, it's not the same as building iPods or sneakers.
