Trade barriers rise due to recession

You'll have to go beyond vague questions and attempt to clearly spell out your argument if you want to have a discussion on whether Unions are responsible for the Cadillac Cimeron.

Frankly I am at a loss what your point is supposed to be, as usual.

Carry on. :roll:

It was a poorly designed Chevy meant for a lower end market that the execs at GM decided to slap a Cadillac emblem on. In the end the Cimeron severely injured Cadillacs' brand image resulting in slower sales for Cadillac. It took years for Cadillac to repair its brand image.

I am still at a loss how this has anything to do with the following comment you responded to:

It is we and the vast incomprehensible red tape, regulations, requirements and unreasonable UNION contracts that make earning a profit for one's investment nearly impossible.

The Cimmaron has nothing to do with why companies run to other countries to manufacture goods that the consumer can afford and is willing to pay for.

We had a Cimmaron. It wasn't a bad car by any means.
It WAS small, but that doesn't equate to 'bad'.

It was, as I said at the time, a very nice 4-door Z24.
