Two stupid signs

How to prepare for disaster:
First thing: Buy stuff.
then make a plan to buy more stuff in case you feel that you need them, write your wish list on a clip pad.
Buy a laptop, that is ready to go out of the box.
be sure to conduct a full market research, make sure you are informed and get a good deal.

Ready?
this sign is so stupid it could have been designed in israel


Why buy an american car? is it because you want to buy a locally made product? like those american cars that have more parts made in japan in them then not, that have more hours of foreign labor put in to them then local? or perhaps its those cars made by slave labor in mexico, or canada. i guess they are both local to the american continent.
maybe its because you want to buy one of those cars that are deliberately designed to be inefficient, so that you will need to buy more fuel, have less power, less technology and are still using the same basic design they did 100 years ago?
or maybe its the reliability of those cars that rust fast, made to last less time then they could so you would have to buy more parts and replace the whole thing sooner then later?
or maybe its the safety features of SUV's that are not classified as regular cars, so that they are not required to have seat belts, breaks, lights or any kind of safety margin? or those smaller cars with truck engines that were called "unsafe at any speed", because they broke down often, crashed and caught fire trapping the passengers inside?
maybe its because you want to support the companied that made the Nazi invasion of europe possible.
i know - its because you want to put your voice along side the companies that made the US what it is today, a country with no public transit, no public health, actually no public anything, that have bankrupt the urban centers and made the US the country with the largest gap between rich and poor in the western world.
Or perhaps those local companies that are now owned by European and Japanese companies, after they went bankrupt twice in the past 20 years because of bad management and bad products? and not only did they go bankrupt, the US government gave them billions of tax payer dollars so they will no collapse and they used that money to pay dividends and bonuses to top executives, and then let the companies go under? those companies who did the same trick twice? and still made bad cars that do not compete with the rest of the world?

perhaps this one as well.
