Unsafe At Any Speed

Filed under: Do Something

General Havoc.

Recently American auto makers General Motors and Ford have announced that they will be closing many of the production plants that they have in the US. Over burdened by liberal pension and health plans that were negotiated during the 60’s and 70’s with the UAW for both workers and retirees, and by the current energy shortages.

During previous strikes and plant closings, workers purposely left tools in door panels, no oil in engines, bolts missing from drive trains and suspension components. A good friend of mine was nearly killed driving a Chevy Wagon when the rear axle separated and caused a tremendous accident. Details of the settlement were not released.

Keeping this in mind, whose automotive products will you, be comfortable purchasing over the next year?
