The Auto Industry Bailout and Mitt Romney
01/06/2008
Mitt Romney opposed the auto industry bailout. An article by Romney with the title "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt," appeared in the New York Times at the time of the bailout. Auto executive Bob Lutz says he was profoundly disappointed by Romeny's position, as the situation was at a point where government loans were necessary. Auto executives see the vindication of their position in the recovery of Chrysler, GM and Ford Motor. In a bit of irony Romney, who is from Michigan, announced his candidacy for the 2008 presidential election at the Ford Museum in Dearborn. GM and Chrysler went into bankruptcy, but this was a planned bankruptcy, with the support of the U.S. government and a pathway set with loans and conditions so that would lead to eventual recovery. The fear was that a chaotic bankruptcy process would permanently impair the American auto manufacturing industry- and the planned bankruptcy with government conditions and loans was meant to avert this and still allow shedding or restructuring of burdensome obligations- as this way buyers would still have confidence to buy automobiles from GM and Chrysler. Auto executives point out that the private markets had already shut out GM and Chrysler from financing. Retired GE executive supported a planned bankruptcy with government help, because of the importance of the auto industry to the U.S. economy, in the Nov. 18, 2008 issue of Business Week.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
