Capitalism is ruthless and necessary, the strong and capable must win so that we can be provided with the best, cheapest goods and the successful are rewarded. To move away from this philosophy is to embrace socialism and a certain non reversable decline into mediocrity and eventual economic failure.
Human nature is such that if people are taken care off, they will not work and live off welfare. Once excessive benefits are given the "common worker". they cannot be taken away. Look at the Uaw. The big 3 pay 1500 to 2000 dollars per car for retirement/medical/and bull**** worker production rules.
Gm is the largest health care provider in the US.
The only solution is for the Big3 is to continue to lose money for the next few years until all of their assets are bled off and than they will reorganize and offload their health care etc to the feds, and begin production again and attempt to be competitive.
If the best car for you is US, go for it, if not buy what appeals to you the most. Support the best product at the cheapest price, in the long run we will all benefit.
