The auto industry should not forget the bitter lesson from its bankruptcy. Automakers pledged change in direction before people and thereby barely received taxpayer’s cash, but they are still doing nothing. The current “unsustainable” fuel price, which is projected to go even higher, has gone far beyond a hybrid level again , which did not deter the recession.

The auto industry needs to leverage the rebates of cash for clunkers as a stepping stone for a fundamental change as promised, not business as usual. I still think the densely populated countries are consuming such incredible natural resources right now that inefficiency as it is can’t be allowed any more.

Thanks !
