    The interesting thing is that while the U.S. consumer is presented with almost everything made in China, I have read some articles that show the Economic slowdown is effecting China more than the U.S. since their economy assumes they can sell much of their goods to the U.S. The problem is that much of the U.S. heavy industry has disappeared and it has been noted that China does not have much of what is called service industries but it would seem to be difficult to buy a Chinese motorcycle with McDonalds cheeseburgers due to the distance involved. I like the business model where the Harley Davison employees bought and own the company. When the employees own the company there is much less of the them/us conflict between employer and unions and a lot more cooperation. Maybe Chrysler should offer the company shares to the workers since it looks like Chrysler is in the weakest position among the auto companies at the moment.
