I thought spring is in the air finally. I encounter more bad redneck white drivers than Asian. While we are at it, don't forget the bling-bling crowd with a jack up Camero and 20" wheels. It all depends on where you live. Ricers offend me the most with the loud muffler with awful sound. There are nice exhaust note (Porche, domestic V8) and then there are the farty rice pipes.

Another stupid ricer boy in a Honda civic trying to run me off the road today Worse of all, the stupid ricer boys are now joined by ever-increasing numbers of Mexicans, also in ricer Civics, trying to poke through traffic in their shitty, 1990s, 110 HP POS buckets. One merged in front of me on the freeway (in the HOV lane even though he was alone) and I had to brake from 80 to 50 MPH while waiting for his POS car to accelerate and race forward until he gets to a distance of about 1 yard with the car in front of him, and has to brake again You guys couldn’t be more correct.

And they do. Basically, it is very complex schema to take money out and complexity breads expense. For a bank an opening of a new retail customer account cost $300 (actually it was price 10 years ago). This is cost of bureaucracy. Banks are very agile corporations compare to our famed auto industry. Imagine how they can execute your type of transaction, bringing in Chinese domestic partners into it so transactions will not be stopped (domestic partners in China are controlled by commies family members, bribery in our parlance). One can argue that cheaply produced cars can be sold outside for profit, but it has nothing to do with growth of Chinese market to US auto industry. Actually, this one is Honda's model: market or seller controls the cash flow.

Does anyone think we got the bottom of the barrel? On a serious note, it does not matter to anyone but Chinese commies, since by law you can not legally take out of mainland China more then you invested in the plant/factory. In another words you can build factory and make money for Chinese proletariat (especially ones in concentration camps) but dirty, rotten capitalists can't get any profit from it. That is why it does not make sense to me why GM (and Ford and Chrysler) are clamoring for Chinese market share. Very, very bad drivers in US are usually from China (or India).
