I blame both the auto executives and the UAW for the failure of the industry.
The UAW is to blame for demanding too much.
The auto executives are to blame for:
Giving in the UAW Demands
Electing to make vehicles that people did not want to buy
Designing and building vehicles that are of far lessor quality that cars made by Japanese auto companies
Not modernizing their facilities
Deciding to build large vehicles such as the Suburban and H-3 when it was obvious that the customer wanted more fuel efficient vehicles.
Selling crap like the Pontiac Aztec
Being dumber than the Japanese auto executives who had a much greater insight to the American market than the American auto executives.

You and I are in complete agreement. The only question is will Congress make it worse? I'd say they probably will.
