Too late! Got a `Stang a couple weeks ago (to
supplement the Dak,not replace it).You have to look
beyond the individual companies that promote this
stuff and trace it back to it`s source.It`s a
political and "spiritual" philosophy.To quote Don
Henley in a song,"You don`t really wanna know just how
far it`s gone".Most major companies (including
Chrysler) are pushing this stuff,and making their
employees attend seminars to recondition them,more or
less.Gonna get worse.You may as well buy whatever you
want.BTW,it has little to do with racism.Other
interests have their hands in it.
