Well, if it was a company making cars in America, yes. I'd be out of a job. I work on the workers, so to speak..physical therapy...and if they go, I go too. Production hasn't changed much YET in my plant, except no overtime saturdays, but there are always rumors flying.

That'd work. Apple pie is about as American as Mussolini.

Is that a make of apple pie? No....That's McIntosh...... I thought that was a computer? It is; but it is a type of Apple as well....Read on.............McIntosh apples were developed by a farmer named John McIntosh in Ontario, Canada, in 1870. The apple is still a success today, and is the top-selling variety in North America. It’s been cross-bred with other varieties to create other well-known apples, including Cortland, Empire, and Spartan. McIntosh apples are round and red, usually retaining some green mottling even when ripe. They have a white flesh with a spicy, aromatic flavor and plenty of juice. They tend to hold up well as pie apples, and are excellent for snacking.
