[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3519690, member: 5412"] Rambler, Studebaker, Chord, and others failed. The Government didn't bail them out. GM should have been allowed to fail because they were ran by the Unions into the ground. Their Pension system took them down for the most part. Lots of auto companies building cars in the US now that are not Union and they are profitable with the employees making good benefits and wages. Same thing took the steel production overseas. The Unions wouldn't support technology that they thought would cost jobs, so those jobs went overseas where technology ruled. They didn't understand technology that still needs blue collar jobs but increases the number of jobs that support the technology with programmers, Skilled Maintenance workers and so on. The education level of jobs had to go up while the unions fought that ideal. It cost them every steel making job in the US for the most part. [/QUOTE]
