A revelation of stunning magnitude.

At a pinnacle of Nazi Engineering, subsequently Volkswagen (TM) was
adapted to provide a Western American capital market with an
"Everyman's Car", comprising no owner mechanical expertise above and
beyond what one man could not perform, solely and individually, to
maintain and replace a Volkswagen vehicle part(s) accordingly within
workable order.

The first Volkswagen Beatles were sold in America for $600/US for
operating on a 6Vold electrical system from a 40-horsepower motor.

Now a clock movement, from China, occurs at under $1/US to subsidized
US mail services, and, as we're informed, a gasoline-fueled vehicle
costs an American $40,000/US. It's fully a 360-degree magnitude of
import.
