What the government SHOULD do to pay for all this is to tax the living daylights out of trucks for anything but farm and commercial use. And kill the Hummer division. Men should find another method to prove their sexual worth, like raking the leaves and finishing the weatherstripping.
It snows a lot here, enough that a Subaru would only be moderately effective. Plus I have three kids a dog and a boat to pull around. Going to the lake for the week uses most all the cargo space in the Suburban. Taxing trucks more is just plane dumb.
These auto companies problems start with having too many models, they compete with them selves.
