Will this help Chrysler and GM return to profitability? Even if you think this is a good idea, couldn’t they delay for some years to let them get back on their feet? Here they are going to have to re-tool and absorb lots of new costs and pass along price increases at a point where they are financially weak.
This has nothing to do with bringing Chrysler or GM back to profitability. This has to do with crippling that thorn in the side FORD who refuses to roll over and die like the rest.
