As the Big 3 has failed to do their job, they should all be fired, including management and each board. They want $50 Billion to retool, fine after they the leadership is gone and new green design leadership is put in place. The Big 3 Leadership has been a total disgrace by missing the market in search of more horsepower and higher prices.<br><br>It is the green design people within the Auto Workers Union that need to stand up. No Fed Funds should go to green retooling without both management and each board stepping down. 40 and 45 MPG should be the low end target. 100 MPG should be the new goal. <br><br>Cutting US Domestic demand by 30% is a very easy goal to reach when you have a green Energy President who is advocating Green Energy conservation and the people are with him. New green composite materials are here to reduce the weight and increase the strength of each auto and truck.JPSun, 09 Nov 2008 11:21:08 -0000http://ecoble.com/2008/11/08/obamas-1-priority-what-will-a-new-energy-economy-bring/#comment-4089991I'm really interested to see how everything pans out.
