    In an interview before a Reuters event in Detroit on Wednesday, Munoz said Hyundai intends to "sever relations" with the two Alabama supplier plants under scrutiny for deploying underage labor "as soon as possible."

    Wait... they are going to sever relations as soon as possible or the Alabama supplier plants deployed underage labor as soon as possible?

    I'm assuming the kids are there because they want to be.
    There's thousands of 12 year olds running around cutting grass, painting mailboxes, pressure washing, and other odd jobs to make money. I applaud them. I had a neighbor who's grandson was making $500 a month ten years ago cutting yards.
    I guess they shouldn't be setting a bad example for future deadbeats.

    Hard times make strong men, strong men make good times, good times make weak men, weak men make hard times.

    I rest my case.

    Don't worry about it. Tommy Tuberville is on the case!
