Americans don’t want to be told what to drive by Moore or anyone else.

Imagine an outside industry performing a business plan noting that the incumbant industry has signed up to pay union wages that are about 2X that of the going rate, has signed up to provide lifelong pensions that are off the top with expensive health care to boot.

I would jump at this market, because I know I could provide a superior product at competive prices with enough trade-space to offer a few upgrades and still make a profit. This is exactly what happened. Greed from both the UAW and the corporation have come at the expense of product. The corporation should be about making cars, not millionaires. If you make the cars, the latter will follow.

There are many countries with the technology and work-force able to make cars. In the 50s and 60′s, Detriot had it all and got fat and spoiled. What a terrible business model, paying retirees the rest of their lives. Dumb. Unions demanding more, CEOs getting more, the product taking a back seat to the corporation.

Americans should be on notice that the global market will reward those whom work hard for a reasonable wage. When China is tooled up to produce cars, watch out.
