Realistically, if you're going to spend the money, the auto industry is probably the LAST place you want to spend it. Each $4,000 generates a total of about 30 direct labor hours of work.

Contrast that with roofing in which $4,000 would generate at least 100 and probably more direct labor hours.

Realistically, if you're going to spend the money, the auto industry is probably the LAST place you want to spend it. Each $4,000 generates a total of about 30 direct labor hours of work, even if you don't take into account the buffering of production by massive inventories.
