If you ask someone who works there I think you wil find they do a lot more than put a few bolts in.

Sure I'd rather that GM and Chrysler and Ford made cars that people would choose on their own to buy, but heck I would still like to be able to buy a new Studebaker too.

I don't want any of those companies to go under because of all the fine folks who work in them....but I suppose if they do that the japanese/american companies will pick up the slack.

The CFC was not mainly about saving fuel it was about giving the economy a boost and saving jobs.
