Quotes-start.png "“Ripple effect” is too mild a term for the impact that a bankruptcy among the Big Three would have on other manufacturers, suppliers, dealers, insurance companies and thousands of businesses that at first glance would not seem to be related to the auto industry. The industry supports, in one way or another, one in every 10 jobs in the nation. A bankruptcy would be like a hurricane blowing through the U.S. economy." Quotes-end.png
