Quote from Humpy:
The exact same happened to the British auto industry decades ago and it died !
1.The mediocre talented executives were over paid.
2. The workforce were poorly paid ( by comparison to top execs ) and poorly managed so they got stroppy.
3. The foreign competition produced better cars
Its a lot cheaper to learn from the mistakes of others and DO something before its too late

Yea Bush runs up the debt by 5 trillion. Wall Street gets 800 billion. The Fed guarantees (through the printing press) billions more, but the 3 billion for Joe the Average Guy is going to bankrupt the economy and must be stopped. I think you need to call a cab to get home, you are cleary drunk on some right wing Kool-AidQuote from turkeyneck:
Will they extend the program indefinitely until the entire country goes bankrupt just to keep these dinosaurs afloat?
Quote from ByLoSellHi:
The U.S. is going to be awash in gently used, extremely inexpensive, 1 to 2 year old cars soon, which will depress the price of new cars, also.
