Not to minimize the impact that will be felt by these people, but I thought I read about 12k of these will be early retirement candidates. Hopefully the severance for the other 8k will be sufficient.

We don't even know where the layoffs will take place; Ford is a global company. Hopefully they are not all in Detroit.
