The US auto market is being held hostage by the same five companies that want to force you to buy different variations of the same fuckhuge $34,999 (plus dealer tip) AWD, CVT-powered plasticmobiles loaded with features you never asked for. Fuck them, if domestic cars are so good, what are they afraid of?

Don’t forget how they’ve spent the last century lobbying against public transport infrastructure and walkable cities, requiring most people to own a car if they want the same mobility people across Europe and South East Asia have access to (at 2-5x the cost).

True. The UAW got a huge PR boost this year, but don’t forget that those fucks want us in massive, overpriced cars that we don’t need just as much as the Big Three.
