That commercial gives me a freedom boner every time.

>What country can possibly compete with America?

Since OP brings up cars and motor city, let's compare. America's Motor City to a ruined city in Japan. OP and his commercial was about american nostalgia, but what about the actual present?

Germany and Japan

Hiro's rebuilding was a direct result of American occupation and funding tho.
We kind of literally built modern Japan after the occupation

sup

China will eventually eclipse Japan

>We kind of literally built modern Japan after the occupation

You were there for like 6 years tho, and it mostly was to get a government in place and send scientists to Hiroshima / Nipponsaki. If you still were involved it would probably look like Detroit again, what with all your melanin enriched fellows and whatnot.

>needs the finest scientists on the continent to create the "FASTEST CAR IN THE WORLD" only for it to get beaten by an LS swapped Lotus built by a con artist in a shed

AEGIS is an old but still somewhat effective ship defense system. China has been updating its navy and has a variety of copycat re-stylings just as they do with copies of famous cars.

>What country can possibly compete with America?

China's doing pretty well economically and continues to advance. While it is still seriously behind, it is catching up. Meanwhile, the USA has slowed down and even declined in various areas under the cost of its extravagant infrastructure which requires high profits for sustainability.

This. I mean COME ON

Not to mention vw actually loses money whenever they sell a veyron.

America could probably have the best everything (schools, infrastructure, healthcare, reform systems that turn most criminal's lives around instead of making them more psychotic and hellbent on revenge against society by the time they get out) If we weren't spending such an atrocious amount of money on the Military.

i heard that even if we spent even a fraction of the military's budget on NASA we would've been to mars or damn near close by now.

Being a proxy military for a dozen other countries around the world and in general being the world police is kinda hurting us. (not to bring some pol tier shit up in here)

>to get a govt in place
>and occupy them until well into the Cold War, and still occupy territories of theirs today
American controlled govt is literally the point lad.

Modified corvette?

You wanted to supplant the Brits. Now stop whining.

Those Americans and their weird love for the flag.

Maybe in a alternate universe Britain stays the super-power and peacekeeper and america could've been the introverted nation left to its own affairs inside its borders. just a thought.

Well, you wanted to be the big boss so now you got to sleep in the mess you made.

In what way? And what's the meaning of "freedom'' for Americans?

>we

>America could've been the introverted nation left to its own affairs inside its borders

No taxation without representation, Britain was imposing heavy taxes/tariffs on the colonists.
Also, the 1774 import ban on firearms and gunpowder; the 1774-75 confiscations of firearms and gunpowder; and the use of violence to effectuate the confiscations.
And also the British Parliament in 1774 passed the Coercive Acts, stating that they could deploy an army to enforce the confiscations and taxation.

So yeah, nah. They did the same thing to India.

>michigan is democratic run

Really gets the neurons fired up

Vote Trump

nice modified car, too bad its not production and its slower than this Ford

>michigan is democratic run
Importantly, the Detroit area was black-run for decades due to the area's voting majority being black.

where's the cut version that's actually better

>What country can possibly compete with America?
How much of american cars' parts are actually made in the USA?

How many of (insert manufacturer)'S parts actually come from (insert country of origin)?

>Ford
Still American. Still better than yurop.

>How many of (insert manufacturer)'S parts actually come from (insert country of origin)?

It depends if you use a subjective, objective, or politicized measurement. The official AALA parts percentage rating one on USA car labels is the politicized one.

One of the first things a consumer looks at while car shopping is the price and options label. Since the enactment of the American Automotive Labeling Act (AALA) in 1994, automakers are required to provide information on the label detailing the amount of U.S. and Canadian parts content, the country of assembly, and the engine and transmission’s country of origin.

AALA data, while useful, is not the most accurate means of assessing a vehicle’s contribution to the U.S. economy. It presents a number of limitations; U.S. and Canadian content are combined into one number, and automakers are allowed to ROUND UP a part that is potentially only 70% U.S./Canadian to be labeled as 100% U.S./Canadian. This obviously favors parts made in China and can cause them to be creatively re-labeled as Made in USA if additional processing or handling is performed on them.

New stealth ships like that zumwalt class seem like they'd sink easier than those old and far cheaper to make ships.

>Ford
Where did they develop the Ecoboost series?

So we can keep buying tanks we don't need? We currently have enough tanks to bulldoze china and russia in one go, yet say "nuh uh, no colonialism, not the direct kind anyways"

What a waste

>Americans applaud the efforts of confirmed scam artists
Definitely causes one to cerebrate

Arr oh eff ell emm ayy oh.

Instead of industry and jobs, we need more funded economic welfare programs funded by taxpayers.

It would be great if americans could work in auto parts industries and make a living wage. But those jobs all went to China, Mexico, and elsewhere. Suppliers like china's Harbor Freight also killed off american automotive tool makers.


In return for large donations to the Clinton Foundation, president clinton signed away many jobs to China by giving China the Most Favored Nation tradition status. He also did Nafta which sent manufacturing or processing jobs out of the country. Ironically, this decreased the job opportunities for living wages in the USA but improved Mexico, Canada, and especially China which had a boom economy.

Lots of auto parts or car tools are now made in China. Furthermore, many usa-based companies making parts or tools are now owned by chinese firms or investment organizations indirectly directed by the chinese government.

After Bill Clinton's presidency, the pace of welfare increased dramatically. In 2012, almost 35% of USA households received social welfare support. Technically, it's 49% but it's the 35% that are heavily dependent so that is what matters.

washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2012/09/18/who-receives-benefits-from-the-federal-government-in-six-charts/

DATA 4th quarter 2012 via stats compiled by Census Bureau.for Aug 2014:
"""35.4 Percent: 109,631,000 on Welfare. 109,631,000 Americans lived in households that received benefits from one or more federally funded "means-tested programs" (aka welfare).

The number has increased since then. The costs have increased with the implementation of Obamacare which is on track scheduled to have double digit insurance rate increases in 2017. Because the fines are less than the cost of insurance in 2017, it is predicted that some people will opt to not purchase insurance and get fined instead and then use the appeal process to reduce the fines.

I couldn't find that second one because google fucking sucks, sauce?

Many countries in africa get "social welfare" funding (foreign aid) from the usa. Some countries demand it as if it were their entitled rights citing that it is unfair that the usa not share its material prosperity with them.

>couldn't find that second one
From the movies for Arpeggio of Blue Steel. The movies make more sense if you watch the TV series first though.

>What country can possibly compete with America?

Many years ago, Japan stepped up to compete against American car companies and American tool companies. They won in the 1990's especially with Clinton opening up American markets with trade agreements. The Japanese kept on winning after 2000. In the 2010 decade, the Japanese are still winning. So America fell down and remained down. Even Chrysler is in last place on reliability.

>Many years ago, Japan stepped up to compete against American car companies
America has failed to dethrone the japanese car companies.

>South Korea stepped up to compete against American car companies
They are still improving and are continuing to increase market share against their american competitors.

>China will eventually step up to compete against American car companies.
As with Harbor Freight and other Chinese-made products, the american people will buy them and eventually the American companies will be forced to stop having high infrastructure costs or face going out of business. American companies will have to get rid of pensions, lower their benefits, lower the salaries, and possibly switch to contract employment by seeking hiring contractor companies rather than hiring employees directly. Competition is good as they say.

None of the chinese companies are quite up to the task of buying FCA in order to gain a dealership network. Not that taking on pension, benefits, and salary debt is the chinese way of doing things in the first place. Their way is to wait for the competitor to go out of business due to price wars and then buy up the intellectual property for a penny or half-penny on the dollar.

>the pinnacle of American engineering and refinement

...

So that means americans weren't able to beat (compete) for all that time. Co-exist yeah. But if there was real competition, then the top three places would be continually alternating between the americans and japanese and germans.

I actually really hate this. I like the Veyron interior better.

Okay I get the weight reqs and all but that cheap ass Kenwood radio looking thing is an insult.

>American car
>HURR DURR PLASTIC DO LMAO IS THIS LUXURY FOR BURGERS FUCKING STUPID MURRIFATS
>European car
>WOW SUCH ERGONOMIC, ELEGANT, MINIMALIST DESIGN, TRULY A MASTERPIECE. STUPID AMERICANS COULD NEVER MAKE AN INTERIOR THIS GOOD

Much better commercial IMHO
