Exactly right. Also, this allowed the foreign car mfrs to continue to produce cars at prices below the cost of domestic producers, increasing their market share and ultimately driving the self-immolating dinosaurs and their union troglodytes into near bankruptcy.
Good quality cars & trucks at a good price? Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia.
