Selling out?  I thought they were selling to America.  Capitalism is not a 
bad concept.  It works.  It sure beats Communism.  The state run businesses have 
a difficult time with their workers and with attracting customers.  
Competition hones the mind and keeps people interested in the many choices that are out 
there.  

Oh, and the idea that we should only buy American?  People would do so if 
American products were higher in quality to other products.  Also, very little is 
completely "American made" anymore.  Parts, assembling, material, etc., come 
from abroad.  The widget makers have fled to third world countries and have 
afforded them the ability to develop their own economies.
