		<description>@Bimmer: someday you might take a university course in economics, where they may teach you about &quot;exchange rates.&quot; Until then, you&#039;ll just have to trust that greed was not the motive here.

Second, using your logic, I guess Budweiser isn&#039;t an American ale after all. Anheuser-Busch was bought by InBev, and the resultant holdings company is headquartered in Brussels, so Budweiser is now just a fancy Belgian brew, right? You know, just like how Ferraris are really fancy Fiats?

Don&#039;t take my word for it, though. You could fly over to see our facility yourself, and look for any &quot;VW&quot; logos that might be hiding. You might even fly on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, which, despite being Dutch, is French. Wait--KLM also has a partnership with Northwest... Although Northwest is really Delta... So does that make this Dutch French airline half American? Hmmm... Sehr verwirrend!

But different people have different tastes, so if someone would like to buy a RR--oops, I mean a fancy, elongated BMW (or Mini?)--then go get one.

The idea that some parent companies are more hands-on and some are more hands-off just can&#039;t be taken seriously, can it?</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not being facetious with this (I&#039;m serious):  Good.  I hope the executives at VW or Bentley stand to make a lot of money from this.  I&#039;m sure that they are alotting for future growth, and by that I mean that they can return more money to their investors and hire/keep on more people.  More people can say with pride that they work at the Bentley plant. 

Also those darn &quot;greedy&quot; CEO&#039;s will be able to take more Gulfstream Jet flights.  Their greed hires more people to assemble those jets.  The engines probably come from Rolls-Royce or GE via their greedy CEO&#039;s and all the greedy employees that they hire.   

This also means that more tax revenue will go to the appropriate governments (Both locally and nationally).  This tax revenue can fund those non-&quot;greedy&quot; programs like legally stealing from banks by cramming down mortgage principals, public schools, national health care.  

You say greed, I say a rising tide lifts all boats.  

That&#039;s it!  I&#039;m changing my name to Andy Randy!  Or Rabid Capitalist!</description>

		<description>I guess &#039;fancy VW&#039; is not making enough, so they&#039;re becoming too greedy. Buy a Roller instead.</description>
