No one wants to see 2 million people out of work, certainly won't help the already ailing economy. However, giving these three companies money only so they can turn around in 3 - 6 months and have the same issue is ridiculous. The problem isn't UAW, the problem is these companies make an inferior product to Toyota, Honda, and a slew of other foreign car manufacturers out there. Even if they made a wonderful product, public perception is that they don't. Ford is now getting some good crash test ratings and they seem to be gaining a shred of consumer confidence and trade publication interest. We'll see. IIHS just came out with their crash test ratings, Chrylser didn't score 5 stars one one car, not one. Are the majority of people going to buy a Chrylser, no. Congress will have to see what these companies come back with for a plan and hopefully at least one of them won't suck.
