I want to see high American made content also assembled in the US (the Corvette is #1 in this regard). But I get why it's declining and GM isn't the only company doing this to survive.

Very true. Why pay someone $30/hr. to attach a car hood, when I can pay someone $2/hr. to do the same thing? From a business standpoint, it is very logical, but it puts the American worker in a bad way. Something has to give.
