A year or so ago in HEMMINGS CLASSIC CAR magazine there was a series of articles about how the auto companies pitched in to manufacture war material, weapons, guns, tanks, planes and all that good stuff that helped us win WWII. If these companies are allowed to fail and disappear, I fear we will be sitting ducks for whatever government wants to start the next BIG ONE. I know wars will never be fought like they were then, with smart bombs and laser guided rockets and such, but without these big manufacturing centers I feel we could be at risk.
