Koppelman and whatsisname don't do Salon proud. Speaking as a non-American who could buy US cars but doesn't, why are these writers avoiding speaking about who is actually responsible for all this?
Lying politicians? Somewhat. Lazy workers? Maybe. Inefficient workers? Maybe. Expensive workers? Well, yes. Greedy unions? Somewhat.
BUT WHAT ABOUT FILTHY-RICH TOP MANAGEMENT?
Why do you avoid speaking about the guys who pulled the levers? Who fly in unthinkable luxury to their golf resorts while their companies tank? Because of the "Yank Tanks" they build that we (the other 6 300 million of humanity) wouldn't dream of buying.
Who pay themselves millions, then millions on top of that in "BONUSSES" for every conceivable little thing they can spin as "positive" (even if they have to lie and collude to get their share price to blip upwards at reporting time), yet NEVER penalise themselves when they cock up (oh, that's always due to "circumstances beyond their control").
Jeeeesh, Salon!!
