the people will be left holding the bag for the mistakes of GM's management and labor leaders.. Seems to me ultimate blame is attributable to government -- as usual. In FDR's time vote buyers granted unwarranted power to the goons. The goons evolved a strategy of stomping the manufacturers one at a time. Came LBJ's inflation, management erroneously assumed they could just forever pass on, like, whatever, costs incurred, or compensate with sloppy manufacturing. When better competition began eating their lunch there was no escape from legacy costs and the type of iron that implied. This will reach end stage. Someday.
