In fact America needs a reboot. Hio nchi imeuzwa kabisa. I always thought that maybe the big American manufacturers had kept a sizeable percentage of manufacturing in the U.S. but truth be told almost every major manufacturer has contracted companies outside the U.S. who manufacture 100% not 40% or 60% but 100% of their components and they re-import finished components at a huge saving. America is now just one big assembly facility!
I never stopped to ask myself, American steel is dead, so how can they claim to be manufacturing anything in the U.S.? Even the American recycled scrap steel and iron bado inaenda tu China.
These whoring American companies sold their country!
And consecutive American presidents are paid something and they look the other way. Steel and Iron factories fall by the wayside.
And its all done in the name of profits. Just like sony sugar has a sugar factory or claims to have a sugar factory, but in reality its just a front for dumping cheap imported sugar which is then repackaged and sold as “Kenyan” genuine sugar.
A company like Harley Davidson will claim to be very American with a big factory in Wisconsin with thousands of workers… lakini wapi! Hakuna factory, ni ka assembly plant hohe hahe. Some of these fuckers are so dirty hata hakuna assembling inaendelea, the car or the motorbike just passes through the facility from China or wherever fully assembled halafu inawekelewa tag kwa hio facility ati made in America. That’s it they just add a tag!
And then these fellows still want to pay similar taxes like ordinary Americans who still manufacture in the U.S.!
Their lobbyists even lie that if they leave China or Germany then Chinese factories or German factories in America will also leave and leave with jobs. They further lie that by manufacturing abroad they are closer to new markets!
I tell you Trump has his work cut out for him. We need an extremely violent trade war so everyone can say the truth: Are you American made or Chinese made or Japan made or Thailand made etc?
I wish every country would join Trump in this effort. Because hii ni kwuuza nchi. Simple. Companies conspire to destroy whole economies at the alter of profit.
But Trump has the big stick: tax! He shouldn’t stop at EU, Canada or Mexico… tax all these sellout companies! If apple wants to remain in China basi they are a Chinese company walipe kama China.
Harley Davidson doesn’t manufacture a single component in the U.S. walipe pia kama China. And Trump has said he is going after Harley Davidson and that is excellent. He should keep his word. Why should you lie to customers ati you are American made/ American heritage to boost sales?
Then Trump should use that new money to support folks who want to stay in the U.S.
Hata Ford na G.M. wakae huko nje if they are sellouts. Na hata wabadilishe majina. Either you stay out or come back!
Some folks in Canada will even engage in magendo while hiding behind NAFTA. Import cheaply from the U.S. then repackage those goods and re-export them back to the U.S. at a profit through very dubious channels. And their prime minister shouts the loudest, “tunaonewa sana na huyu Trump!”
