How to Fix Detroit
Friday, November 21st, 2008I saw the melt down in Detroit coming years ago. I think it was 2005 that I read an article that pointed out that GM had to spend around $2000 on every vehicle sold just to pay for the pensions and benefits of retirees. GM sold a lot more cars in 2005, and they have more retirees today. Is GM selling half the vehicles today? Wouldn’t that mean that they have to calculate closer to $4000 per vehicle for those expenses?
