Look at China: most of the goods made there are from foreign owned companies, and yet their economy is far stronger than the US right now.

The disdain for a Camry made in America amazes me. Sounds like a bunch of whiners who can't see the big picture; that or some not-so-subtle xenophobia.
If the American lemmings hadn't all jumped off the cliff into Camries and Accords the american auto manufacturers wouldn't have been in such bad positions to begin with (still bad, but not AS bad). People have been brainwashd by the media to the point where they believe the Camry is the best and basically refuse to give great cars like the Malibu and Fusion a chance.
