And, even though, you aren't smart enough to accept or understand it, the same reason applies to both those things....

And that answer is, there isn't enough financial return involved to justify the expenditure....


How is it that the Germans have their OWN car industries and manufacture premium quality cars for both the local and export markets which sell for a premium price. Maybe watch the traffic sometime. I'm sure you will see quite a few German made cars Wink

They obviously don't employ idiots like you to make important decisions.


Holden, Ford, Toyota....

And just so you know....
BMW is a mulitnational company (it also owns Rolls-Royce among others)
Volkswagon AG is a multinational (Audi, Bentley,Lamborgini, Skoda, Bugati, Volkswagon passenger and commercial, Scania and MAN...a total of 10 companies)
Opel is owned by General Motors
Porsche is a holding company that owns motor car, motorcycle and aircraft makers ( and a good chunk of Volkswagon AG)
Daimler AG is also a multinational company (it owns Mercedes-Benz and 85% of Mitusbishi Fuso trucks and 10% of Telsa Motors, among otheres)...

None of those are Australian companies. Thyue are multinational companies that are paid off to make cars here.

And how many Holden Commodores and Ford Falcons are sold in Germany vs how many Audi's, VW's, Mercedes, BMW's are sold here ??

You are pulling yourself again as usual.

Anyway.....we've digressed from the original point...

German car manfacturers are multinationals (even if they are based in German), so when the Germans build cars, they are STILL dealing with multinationals....just like Australian companies do...

So no Australian cars are actually exported to Germany !!

And how is that the Germans can set up German OWNED car manufacturing plants and manufacture cars for the local and export industry ??

You can't say that it has anything to do with price because most of their cars sell at the premium end of the market. What is your lame piss weak excuse now ??

Why would the germans import a car almost identical to a locally produced one??

No, actually they're not....mercedes cars are about the same comparitive price as a commodore or falcon....

The police and taxi drivers use mercedes in germany, same as the police/taxis used holden or ford....

WTF does that mean ??

They are German car manufacturers owned by Germans not multinational car manufacturers owned by another country !!

There is a big difference you know !!

As for being churlish - you're the one who is rude & vulgar.



Yeah Fist Puppet, that's not what churlish means and neither does repeating ones opinion over and over define 'exhaustive evidence'.


Looks like you losers did get one single other person to agree with you, well worth the effort put in; kudos to you and nails.  Grin

Good post -
the fact is that if those towel heads can launch their
own satellites then we should be able to do it too.
