CG, I used babblefish.com to translate that article and it said "Tis is a good ting!"
Maybe the WE should follow what works in other countries instead of tossing billions to the automakers why not offer 5-10k vouchers to anyone that wants to buy a new U.S. made car. Hell I read not to long ago that Brazil mandated that automakers there sell the cars at cost so as not to lose jobs. Here is a recent link.

CG you truly are a valuable assett to this site and I appreciate your input.
"Hummer's decline puts dealers at risk." Check out the nytimes business article.
Joeboo1, thanks for your post, much obliged. When I saw the picture, the crowd etc. I was stunned, that thing really works.
I don't know your standpoint about climate change, but all the new cars have much better mileage and are more environmental friendly, well it can't hurt can it ?
You do have a point it appears to me the car makers wouldn't know how to manage a golden egg that was laid in their nest. They would think "hey look how great we are doing." and proceed to do nothing in developing energy friendly cars or changing their business model at all.
Side note for all of us that thought that the GM CEO resigned for noble reasons. Looks like he has 20 million reasons for resigning now instead of waiting until after a BK.
