Quotes-start.png "Honda, Nissan and Toyota all have been enjoying pre-tax operating profits upward of $1,500 per vehicle; Detroit loses money on each car and truck. The charts also show why: labor costs. Thanks to union contracts, the Big Three face hourly labor costs as much as 75 percent higher than at Japanese companies - and three times as much as in the overall private sector. If Congress buys into a bailout, it'll amount to a giant subsidy for inefficiency. " Quotes-end.png
