No actually they are called Ford and GM. They moved to Canada due to higher competence and lower taxes.
Actually there are only 7 GM factories in Canada, compared to the 47 factories in the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_General_Motors_factories
And there are only 3 Ford factories in Canada compared to the 27 in the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ford_factories
The rule of thumb comparing canada and the US is 10.
You have roughly 10 times more of everything numbers wise.
7 GM factories in canda should mean that you guys have 70... You have 27, therefore we have way more than the rule of thumb
Ford 3 out 30 total.... Perfect adherence to the rule.

There are a few candidates that wouldn't be a puppet of the 1%. Trump is the best of them.
Trump IS the 1%
It actually does though, because some aren't bought and paid for, like trump and bernie.
Yeah, he is. Everyone knows that. However, his policies are geared towards the common man. How is 0% income tax for the lowest earners not a policy win for the little guy? The 1% certainly wants the poor to pay taxes, but trump doesn't think they should. We need a populist in office.
You mean a win for loser bums.

The Ecstatic said: I find it amazing that the only criticisms of Bernie are either ad hominem or outright falsehood.
Stoney calls him a burn out, yet also somehow knee-jerk. He's had a consistent message for his 30 year political career.
And somehow puts the big money shadow on Bernie instead of Trump! Bernie's average campaign contribution is $25, and Trump is a god damn billionaire.
If there's a legitimate criticism of Sanders' agenda I'd like to hear it voiced so it can be addressed, not veiled in some hollow and baseless attack.
He's a socialist extremist.

I would also point out that the wealthy are the ones paying for you to live 100% on the dole and pursue extremely irresponsible health chioces that the dole will pay to bail you of.

So people being born into poverty are poor because they suck; but people being born into riches are just rich because their parents were rich.
Gotcha.
Being born poor is not a sentence. If you stay poor you suck.

You're saying that you weren't insinuating that GM and Ford was pulling the majority of their factories out of the US and moving them to Canada? I mean it sounded that way considering the whole

The reasons are what they are and if both Ford and GM were to move everything to Canada, I believe you guys would stop it from happening in a very public and outraged way

But if you're born rich and stay rich then your cool right? Does it still count if you didn't manage to become richer?
Or what if you were born into like 50 million but by the time you were old you didn't make any money and you only had like 25 million left.
Does that mean you suck?
Or like what if you were a crack-baby born in a crack house to a homeless mother and never knew your father and all you could manage to do was get into like a $15/hr job by the time you were 50; meanwhile all your family in friends were either homeless, dead, in jail, or criminals? Does than mean you suck still?
Yeah to all of that.

'Tis true. They suck. If they didn't suck they wouldn't be poor. Did you know that half the population is below average in intelligence?

You must be kidding us, US corporations having been moving manufacturing out of the US for the past 25 years and not much resistence.
Hell, both Ford and GM are now planning to move major facilities to Mexico, US workers just bend over and take it up the ass.
