OMG! WTF?

So, it’s pretty much been happening since 2005, and Pepperoni Pizza will be spinning in his future Hummer’s grave, but the cutbacks and layoffs and bankruptcies of the North American auto industry are becoming frighteningly more commonplace and signify the imminent end, or at least substantial crippling, of the industry that built America.

As the assembly lines slow down, the blue collar workers in auto plant supported cities like Windsor, Ontario lose their benefits, and worse, their jobs and livelihoods.  The gap between the rich and poor is, as predicted, growing steadily.

Furthermore, the deterioration of the auto industry perhaps signifies the crippling of the grandmother of excessive consumerism - Ford’s assembly line.  After all, the ability to mass produce endless stock led to the need to promise happiness in an unneeded product.  Then, the need for credit, the greed, and the current giant snowball of horror that is the worst economic crisis seen in decades.

Sad that those at the bottom will feel the most crippling pinch as a result of this long-coming lesson, but fitting that the industry that started it all is the one of the first to go down hard.

I wish I never had to line up at the 49th. It really sucks to have to waste little precious time we have on this Earth lining up to cross the border. Why do we even have that border? It’s so pointless.

If America and Canada combined forces and became one nation, things would be so much better. We could take the best of both countries and really have a utopian society. Sort of like Voltron, but sovereign nations instead of mechanical lions.

These are just some of the American things I would love to have access to on a more frequent basis:

• Slightly cheaper gasoline even though our dollars are almost equal value
• Spicy Cheetos/ better junk food
• Target
• Apple stuff costs less even though our dollars are almost equal value
• Better TV programming
• Freedom Fries
• Powerball Jackpots
• Taco Bell and Pizza Huts are together
• Jack in the Box
• Better shopping
• Cheap flights to other places in the US such as New York, Florida, Vegas
• Pretty much all food/consumer related things.

In the words of Ariel the Mermaid, “…Wish I could be part of that world…”

*** I wrote all this stuff before that huge buyout credit mortgage stock market crisis, so umm I’ll wait a bit more before I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
