"American" Cars?

The UAW is going to run Chrysler.

Oh....along with the government.

Wow, that's gonna result in a great car, don't you think? Can wait to laugh...er...see their new line. The unions really made serious concessions. Like, when workers get laid off, the company will only pay half of their salary instead of "most" of their pay.

Oh man, that sucks!

Have you ever in your entire life, been paid "most of your salary" by a company that laid you off? I don't even know what that means. And shame on the auto companies for ever agreeing to such an absurd policy.

Doesn't make it very difficult to understand why they went belly-up, does it?

Loyalty to the American Idea requires me to not lend my support to statist/collectivist takeovers of industry. I won't be buying an American car anytime soon.
