    Honestly a lot of this is just good advice in general, even speaking as an American.

    Also, oof that General Motors apparently isn’t important enough to be worth avoiding (and that Chrysler Stellantis no longer counts as American).

      this flyer is full of lies. It was made by someone who doesn’t understand globalism or what a non-profit is.

        LOL! On one hand, sure, you could say that: the American companies GM and Chrysler don’t have a presence in Europe.

        But really what happened is more that they have such a big presence in Europe that they got bought out and are now European themselves. I had already known Fiat bought Chrysler to form FCA, but TIL while researching this response that GM Europe (so just the European subsidiary, not the whole thing) got bought out by PSA Peugeot-Citroen. Then PSA and FCA merged to form Stellantis. So, yeah: Chrysler and GM (in Europe) are not only fully-European companies instead of American-owned ones, they’re the same European company. 🪦
