Maybe I'm "confused, crippled and dependent" but I don't understand why we need to liquidate GM and Chrysler before an automotive entrepreneur could start production. There are plenty of idle plants in the Rust and Motor belts just waiting for someone with a good idea and some money. We have millions of skilled people out of work who would love a job. All of the pieces are already in place. If there really were someone ready to step in and take over from "management that has lost the concept of profitability in favor of self-enrichment, and an organized labor party void of a day's-work-for-a-day's-pay ethic," they would be doing so already. I don't believe that liquidating GM and Chrysler would result in the emergence of such a "reformed" manufacturer. It would just put more people out of work.
