  • Michigan really could use some new industry. Many of the people living there are having a difficult time.

  • Korean car companies have only become serious competitors in the last 10 years or so. Honda and Toyota have been hurting the big 3 since the 70's.

  • The Big Three US auto industry have'nt been a powerhouse in any industry US or otherwise since the 1980's. Pls. refer to US steel industry as the template google 'rustbelt'.

  • If you mean the cheapest Big 3 models compared with the top of the few line or close to top of the line model(s)then I might believe that. As for as anything Al Gore has his paws into,I don't put much credibility into it.He's a self-serving opportunist prick that owns about 5 SUVs, a private jet, a huge mansion with a zinc mine in his backyard, & he preaches about how everyone else needs to consume less energy while he flies and drives all over the world & eats juicy steaks & food in abundance.

  • i menat one specific type of car. sorry if i didnt put it out clearly enough. but i found the book actually very good. it has alot of sources which one can check up if one questions the data.

  • Using An Inconvenient Truth as a source isn't a good idea. The movie is full of half truths and downright baloney. It is a propaganda film. As far as India and China having cars with better quality that US cars is hard to believe.

  • Yeah, OK. Enemies? Everyone likes me. What are you talking about?

  • so much for the superiority of the protestant ethic.  what a joke !!!

    what comes around goes around

  • - Destruction of USA economy started wtih USA entering World Trade Organisation , How can you compete when in CHINA they are paid 2-3 $ per hour , in USA minimum wage is 7.75 $ ,, Stupid ,, Clinton signed it , and signed the deal which is going to fuck Up USA production , ,,

  • GM - Evidence that Big Oil & GM Killed The Electric Car
