3 Major Auto Industries Blame Who?

It is Saturday, November 15 2008. A week after the election economic troubles is still brewing for GW Bush's year end. The Final days till January 20, 2008 are still filled with more financial evils with the 3 major American auto industries now threatening to lay off workers if they do not get a bail out. It seems so strange to me that just before the November 4 2008 elections, the American auto industry said nothing of any problems. In fact, they hid their predicament so well. So why did they all of a sudden feel they needed to make the demand? Just what brought that on? Would those 3 American auto makers had made the same threat if the Republicans, McCain and Palin, were elected?

Yet the same old imaginary villain who the 3 American auto makers blame are the Unions. It seems that the same old song of the Republicans and the manufacturing industry is to cry about how the Unions are to blame for the over spending, over extending mistakes of the Companies. Yeah it seems the Old 3 Manufacturers are following suite of the companies of our past of bellowing out that Old Republican refrain from Reagans time of blaming the Unions instead of taking a good look into their own mirrored past that could explain why their present situation has come to pass.

Those 3 auto makers had been sending jobs over seas as they opened new manufacturing plants in other countries where they were building the more economical cars for decades, while they laid off employees, down scaled work and jobs, and closed a few auto plants here in the States. During these last 8 years of GW Bush administration, toward the end of the year, at least one of the auto giants here in the USA has laidoff some of it's workers. But when you add the number of those laid off during these last 8 years, you can begin to realise that the auto makers have caused this negative aspect themselves.

How can Americans buy the goods and services in this country, if the American Businesses keep laying off the American workers in this country while closing up shop in this country? Yep, it still has not occurred to the American Corporations that taking jobs away from the American worker also takes away the buying power of the American middle class worker. The American companies have yet to figure out that by making the American Middle Class Worker unemployed and devaluing the work of the American Middle Class Worker has stripped away 'The Cycle of the Economy'.

When will the companies realise that every time they make Americans unemployed, those same companies which relied on the American consumer, just keep shooting themselves in the foot.
