Hey T_, I'm not knocking unions and I realize that the $70-80 per hour includes a lot of fixed costs that really doesn't benefit the man on the shop floor. I'm not holding up the Japanese companies, either. Personally, I'll never buy a vehicle with a ....direct....connection to Japan. I know that it's a global economy and probably some of the parts on my equipment, tools, vehicles came from Japan, but I'm too old to change my way of thinking and am too aware of the treatment suffered by our POWs in the years 1942-1945.....at the hands of the Japanese.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
