Following your logic iif company imports cheaper workers, natives have only one choice and that is to accept lower wages since all other companies will also be importing cheaper workforce. Net result is the same, lower wages , less money flowing. Your car will be cheaper not sure if you'll have money to buy it anyway. Congrats.
I am still waiting for you to show me ONE industry where native workers would be "heads and tails" more valuable than Pakistanis?

They reached that conclusion while assuming low net inflow of migrants (1%). Change laws and open your market and that number will go up significantly.

Lol, the only thing the US car industry had going for it was the "buy American" movement. It would have died over a decade ago without it. You seriously dont see some kind of USP in not firing everyone?

Also if everyone is so poor they cant afford a car surely they wont, you know, go through with this plan?

Reading the Federal Reserve quoted as a credible source in Politards has to be discouraging to the Ron Paul followers after all their efforts here.

There are ton of cars made in US by none-US companies. Looks like they found a better compensation model than US car-makers did while still employing local workers.
