Would laugh if it was not so sad...
OTOH the mess the US auto industry is in can perhaps be improved by some better
things, like thinking out of the box, just to get competitive again.
Even if it takes a new take on the laws of physics (Slowman is gone scream here).
Remember the 'old' laws of physics, where nothing heavier then air could ever fly,
and birds were lighter then air?
Planets moved in epicycles....
Earth was flat.
etc etc.
A more fuel efficient car would run further on a standard tank of liquid gas for example.
'I have 40 years experience and have always dunnit that way' and still losing market share?
Who has the ball?

Simple - just fire the unions and hire any of the 10,000,000 scabs waiting
at the side door ready to do a day's work at an _HONEST_ wage.

Possibly just legerdemain.
