Allen, so GMs successes are dumb luck and their woes are a direct result of poor management? That’s convenient. I hope people don’t apply those standards to your work.

Also, and again…. that’s debatable.

This really is not, if you are being rational:

1) The $4k per car trade policy gift/advantage that Japan and Korea have enjoyed over us is real, unfair and unfightable over the long run.

2) Lack of support by US consumers who chose to buy millions of foreign cars caused untold damage and market share loss. Can’t be debated, sorry.

These two things were a death sentence, death is occurring, end of mystery.

Jesus Christ could have been running these companies and we’d still face the eventuality these two conditions created.
