I dont think its Englers or Granholms fault. Basically all the free trade agreements have screwed the auto industry in Michigan. Why would anyone have a part made or a tool built in Michigan when they can get it from China at 1/3rd the cost and 100% of the quality.
I disagree. Moron overpaid CEOs & ridiculously lavish anachronistic union agreements have screwed Detroit.
If you had gone to the Autoshow last month, you'd realize China does not threaten Detroit. I went with a retired former Cadillac plant manager, who's reaction to the Changfeng models on display was simply, "and we thought the first Japanese cars to hit our shores were sad."
