I did. Read what I wrote again. In every case, manufacturing plants in the auto manufacturers home country were superior to manufacturing plants in the US. It is even true of US car makers. GM, Ford, and Chrysler plants in foreign countries put out better cars than the plants in the US.

And this isn't even about the plague of humanity called unions, it is about how other specific countries go about what they do for a living. In both germany and japan people care more about the quality of their work than they do in this country, especially when it comes to car production.
