If think that's more of stating a fact than making excuses
In my world, the facts dictate, lazy people aren't expected to take away jobs. And whiners complain about taxes, rules, regulations, unions, health care law,... you name it. Why aren't these issues creating a similar crisis with Germans?
Hyundai is improving fast, they are very successful in countries such as Brazil...
Hyundai has 3% market share of the Brazilian car market. VW has 22% of the Brazilian car market. Hyundai lost nearly 50% of its market share in Brazil year to date. Yeah Hyundai is very successfull in Brazil.
VW and Fiat are dominating the 4th biggest car market in the world.
The Big 3 and many other large manufacturers wanted to produce in the south for years, i'm sure. Many, many moons ago...no doubt about it. But if they were to have opened a plant in lets say....1950, don't you think that would've presented a little problem?
What problem would it have presented?
The bigoted midwesterners don't want black people building cars? Or do they not want southerners building cars?

We're talking about South Carolina here. I don't think i have to go any further with that point because you know EXACTLY what i'm talking about.
Your attitude, that something is wrong with nonunion states, that this is somehow "implicitly understood" and that I'm just "supposed to know EXACTLY what you're talking about," is a good example of why so many people refuse to buy American cars.

Germany doesn't have a problem with illegal immigration because Germany doesn't border on a poverty stricken country like Mexico. Germans love to complain about taxes, rising healthcare cost and so on as well. Germany always had a heavy regulated industry. Its just part of the culture. I'm German and i realize although this country has problems that compared to the rest of the world I live in paradise.
Look around. From lazy Mexicans taking away our jobs to what not...
There are lots of Mexicans working in the San Fran bay area. I don't think you could classify them as lazy. Illegal, yes, lazy no. They took somebody's job.

There isn't a problem with Turkish immigrants in Germany right now?

You're providing evidence to my point... keep complaining.

Well, there are people who do. I got that line from a Hispanic comedian at the Improv BTW. She was hilarious, and seemed to have wiped the smile out of a few people sitting on my table.
