Imagine that Asher. Employees who are getting fired are pissed off with the management. Would ever have thought?
As for you claim of "thoroughly debunking" anything on this topic at any time...

FYI, most Japanese companies make very little profit (Toyota being one of the few exceptions). The most profitable companies tend to be American.Which approach is better over the long run?
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

I like this explaination. For slow growth industries where costumers are fickle maybe the low risk-low return model is different while for less mature industries it pays to be bold.Originally posted by

Car manufacturing is a mature industry - we are nearing the 100th anniversary of the Model T Ford. As such, the long term approach works better.
The high risk approach works best in emerging industries. That's why Silicon Valley is in America.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

You might like the explanation, but it's a bad one. There are plenty of mature industries led by American companies with regard to profitability.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Ford, GM, Chrysler have always gone through booms and busts, this is no different from the others except for GM maybe, their situation seems much worse, Japanese companies have the same issues and currently there is only one really viable Jap company Toyota, Mishibishu is basically bankrupt, and Mazda, Nissan struggle for profits some recent years, so are not really doing better than Ford.Comment

Now what's really interesting is the amout of effort that Hyundai is putting into quality. They've taken the cars from being POS to having quality on par with (or even exceeding that of) Japanese car companies in a lot of studies and they're increasing market share in America fast, the biggest thing slowing them down is how strong the won is getting...Stop Quoting BenComment

Yeah, I purposefully went out looking for a Hyundai. And I am looking forward to owning my Accent for 10ish years or more.
