GM Inside News Forum - View Single Post - Gutierrez: 'dangerous to have Washington tell these companies how to run their bus'

Washington can only make it worse if they start telling them how to run the industry.

They've already been telling them how to run it with things like CAFE, which by itself has had an incredibly destructive impact by destroying the Big 3's bargaining power with the UAW off at the knees.

Why do a lot of people think government is the answer to things? Their track record, basically hurting everything they touch, is pretty horrendous.

You have Congress talking down to these CEOs about running their companies into the ground. Has anyone checked the government's balance sheet recently?
