I didn't do any research but just the fact of mentioning a senator and a company brings the phrase "conflict of interest" to mind Tongue Out

Well, I just got this in an email and am amazed at how this fits into todays economy and financial situation. The scary thing was this cartoon was published in the Chicago Tribune newspaper in 1934. I thought the purpose of studying history was to be infromed as to not make the same mistakes as in the past!  Scratch Head Enjoy.

N8LHG ,Damn I wish I still had them figures(but if someone would like to see them,I would find them Smiley ) . No,its not a myth...they were not even close to the "American" car Companys....Nevermind,Just seen it a few post up  yes


Folks,

My first gut feeling about the foreign car companies "NOT" giving money into the American economy, or to assist with American interests during a catastrophe MAY be a myth. While I can not speak for most of them on that list, nor can I show any proof here. I lived about 30 miles from the Marysville Honda plants some years ago. I'm not sticking up for them, just feeling suspicious about the email stating that only American Auto Industry gave money, or contribute to the American community.

While Honda has a great many flaws, I was personally involved with some of the community happenings that Honda was putting money into, and contributing a great deal of resources to. They did, at the time I was involved, support at least, the local area during hard times, including giving money to the Marysville Red Cross during flooding in the area. It may not be much, but it meant a lot to Marysville during those times. It may not have been millions or billions, but they did seem to be very community conscious, and at the time, it surprised me. Honda was saying "What can we do to help" in that situation.

So true Wayne.

Don't confuse the Americian Honda employees with the corporation.  Most work forces took collections to raise funds to help. 

Thanks,
Wayne
