Harry Reid: Auto Bailout Probably Saved Ford

apparently either you didnt read, or didnt understand the post.....if you take away a sizable chunk of business from the suppliers, many would go out of business....nowhere did i say anything about gm parts being used in fords, or vice versa.


Ahhhh, so these parts manufactures make parts for both? I see, so what would stop them from continuing to make parts for Ford? Sure they'd have to downsize until another company took over say a GM, but they could make it.

Volume. Would likely cost Ford more. Would reduce work force for those making the products.
 

Close. Has nothing to do with the wisdom of Obama. Ford made the case, and not Obama.
 

Actually, somewhere I did throw evidence out there. Use the nortorious WSJ. But if you like, you can google it yourself. Ford made the case.

j, I always try to support my claim, but I don't think I need to put the link in every post. Do you think I need to?

Yep, probably would in the short run. But GM and Chrysler would have restructured, not disappeared, so your argument has a false premise to begin with.

Yep, I do. See, I am on the road and when I come back there are usually pages, and pages of argument concerning the subject. So, when you make an argument over, you need to cite so that people can see your proof. Otherwise anyone can say anything, doesn't make it true.

Well, i don't. I think I need to post it once. But it is an easy search.

No, not really. The pain would have been real, and better Ford in both the short and long term.
