Wasn't GM able to produce pieces of crap for decades without government involvement?

Case 1 is the '84 Olds Cutlass Ciera (inherited) that caught fire in my garage after I shut it off.

Not like Japan.

They've been subsidizing the development of electrics/hybrids for almost 40 years.

The same with bailouts.

Out of all the foreign automakers on the verge of bankruptcy, including Hyundai, Daewoo, Mazda, Isuzu, and many others, I can't think of any that were allowed to liquidate by their governments.
