No, you won't. As long as the decision belongs to the few whose interest is
not in your favor, you will not see any more European made or made in any
other country like Russia or China or India, Brazil, South Africa models.
Where are those lovely Alfa Romeos? The Citroen Club, which was car of the
year a few times? Have you ever seen a Polish or a Spanish car?
Argentinean or Philippine made one? You won't. It would be too cheap and
our masters or I should say owners will not benefit. Sure many of those are
crappy cars, but they are dirt cheap and last as long as you are taking care
of them well. The South Africans manufacture all the major Japanese and
German cars there, with very high quality control there (I used to be one
of the inspectors), using original German forged steel shipped in there, to
have a certain percentage from the original country. VW, Mercedes, BMW are
the most popular vehicles there. The Japanese are doing great too. Hyundai
and Daewoo are making a killing too.
The control is not in our hand here, but those who have their interest in us
spending our money the way they planned it for us. Even if you have the
money.
They make rules that you can not ignore. Money buys influence, gets power,
makes laws, create sheep... And if its not money its force. They even make
believers of you after a while. Rent out "The inner circle" movie once to
understand how it is, in Russian style.
I have wondered a little off the path, sorry. I must obey.
