Not quite. You guys built cars nobody wanted, and with inferior
quality into the bargain. Just like the Australian automotive industry
did, who took too long to adapt to change... and is now dead because
of it.

Any action by unions only compounded the problem, but then, what
American or Australian would work for wages that made the industry
sufficiently competitive? None would. There's always illegal aliens, I
suppose.
