Michael Moore: Remove the Management of Big Three Automakers
“They’re in the spot they’re in and they’ve been in this spot for some time because they haven’t listened to the consumer, they haven’t been building the right cars … in fact, they’ve not only hurt themselves, they’ve helped to provide some of the fodder for this economic collapse that we’re facing because of the arrogant and wrong decisions that they’ve made over the years. Those people should be removed.” — Michael Moore on Larry King Live, Wednesday, November 19th, 2008 Firing the boss at www.michaelmoore.com

Dammit I cant stop farting!
It is clearly obvious that American Automakers have ignored popular demand and did there best to use modern marketing techniques to promote gas guzzling cars because of their relationship (cartel) with big oil.
The free market is supposed to be free of cartels but at the same time it is in the natural interest of capitalists to form cartels and any policing body that prevents the formation of these cartels 1could never be effective 2 again would make it not an entirely free market.
@Joethompson3 Well they’ll be available in 6 months I heard and for the price. the batteries in them are like $10.000 grand just alone……..!
@Adnoydal Well he did give that guy who runs the biggest Anti Michael Moore website $12.000.00. because the guys wife was sick and the troll running the site took the money. because it was under anonymous until Michael pointed it out in the Sicko movie. of course the guy still kept the money because his wife’s life is more important then his pride. which was the right choice for him and Michael does hold free banquet lunch rallies. for his movies so that’s giving back to the community………!
oh American! Muslims do not hate American we just hate your gov selfish policy which is control and maintaining by the Zionist Jews who are not only enemies MUS but also your. just think about the nation which u grow buy your hardworking tax money cheat with u doing 9/11 if u don’t believe on Muslims at least believe on your own prophet Jesus word who cures in bible on Israeli.

finally, an intelligent comment!! Congratulations! I wish I could feed that fat slob to the crocodiles.
remember roger and me? Who is he saving now?
that the beauty of captialism….if there are no car makers, people need cars. theres money to be made. SOMEONE WILL STEP UP AND MAKE CARS!!
LET IT ALL CRASH!!!
We will pick up the pieces and start again, th a more fair econamy!!
Blessed is the poor man!!
@chewbaca1989
I like Tesla!!
@auroreias
I want one!! an electric car. why cant i buy one at a nice price??
Michael Moore has become rich by preaching the rich must be taxed to feed the poor, but so far hes been eating all the food himself.
im pretty sure the trillions could’ve been properly divided to every worker of the big 3. but the ceos were in charge of that.
Ford did need a bailout !!! but the ford family realized they are 40% stake in the business and cant really lose there business now they have re tooled and built a much better car fusion and edge retooled Big TIME better then toyota Buddy wait and see in ten years for will be cream of the crop !!! over Toyota
I like the big three and I will only drive GM Ford or Dodge. But Moore is right they arent building cars that people want or need. They were arrogant
Believe it or not, some people LIKE SUV’S! In fact, lots of people do! And HUMMERS too! The car companies weren’t shoving those down people’s throats! What’s being shoved down people’s throats is this idea that the “green movement” is some unwritten law. Everyone deserves a choice, & no Michael, that does not just mean the choice to buy a partially electric car (that over it’s lifetime uses more energy than a Hummer), but it also means that people can choose to NOT want one of those cars. *GASP*
Your wrong, the Oligarchy still has the power and they have no innovation. Socialism is just a way to gut the middle class and take away property rights from the masses. No innovation,
Moral hazard is the prospect that a party insulated from risk may behave differently from the way it would behave if it were fully exposed to the risk.
Federal Reserve trying to bailout the economy creates this.
Companies have to fail, and smaller ones will take their place.
Tesla, a car company, makes a electric super-car. Look it up.
The Government bailout politically well connected companies via the creation of Moral Hazard. It hurts the economy is the long run and kills small business.
I don’t think he is dead wrong, the failure of these companies was because of poor business management. I don’t want to give these CEOs money for screwing up. If these companies fail now, though, that’s going to put thousands of even more people out of work, and make the recession worse. However, it may be clever to put some capital into these other companies so that they can hire more people, grow, and offer stronger competition to the big three.
GM’s Chevrolet S10 is one of the most highly sold trucks of all time. They dropped this vehicle for a Colorado which is a bigger sized engine, and less efficient, less demanded vehicle.
This is an example of what Michael Moore is saying.
Moore is dead wrong, the companies should have failed and smaller ones like Tesla should have been the winners.
What a creative society too. They can’t create anything.
what appears to be the right path is the socialistic way of doing things that for example china atleast partly so that it is not a few who become filthy rich but all have atleast a decent life and not be on the road with no jobs
Hahaha Ford rocks!!! Fuck that bailout. All of you goofs need bailouts!
I cant believe it but for once in my adult life I agree with this fat ass, liberal, commie, do nothing slob.
He’s actually right, but dont stop here, get rid of all the management execut’s. Including the bastards on Wall street!
