Back in the day, a Chevy was an American made car, and the hated foreign import was Toyota. Now if the Sec of Labor had bought a toyota, she would be correct in bragging, since they are made right here in America now.
She bought a Chevy here in America, and the people who sold it here got paid. That's what keeps the American, and global economy going, the more the money is circulated, the more it grows. No circulation, NO economy. Despite popular low information beliefs, rich people don't create jobs, CONSUMERS do. This whole economic downturn is driven by consumer being in debt, with no jobs, and the ones with a job, are paying bills, and holding on to dollars for themselves. Bet you are too. Rich people don't believe in hiring or investing unless people are buying, and what's telling that we all ignore, is rich people are running lean, and making big profits.
Now if people weren't in debt, and not saving but spending, you bet your booty, rich people would be hiring, so they can make more money.
So give the lady a break, she thought she was doing great buying an American car.
