Bail Out The Automotive Industry

We must be careful when we talk about bailing out the automotive industry. For one - we are only talking about bailing out the Big 3 (GM, Ford, Chrystler). Interesting enough Toyota and Honda who have plants right in the good old USA are not having financial difficulty. Why on earth could this be? Average hourly rate for someone working at Ford is $73, while Toyota is $48. What is the difference between those two when both are American workers? You guessed it UNIONS! Unions that restrict change and inhibit growth- meanwhile their salaries keep going up. So how is giving $25 billion to the big 3 going to change anything? All it will do is delay the inevitable. These big 3 need to fall on their face, start over, and create a new business model that is more efficient. Take a cue from Toyota and Honda. There is a reason why there businesses are making money and have the best sold cars on the road.
