GOVERNMENT CARS

The One has decreed he will decide what cars are made by the companies he controls:

The U.S. government will appoint four of the nine board members of the new Chrysler, with alliance partner Fiat naming only three and the UAW and Canadian government getting one spot each.

And one condition of Fiat boosting its stake in Chrysler from 20% to 35% is that Fiat-Chrysler build a 40-miles-per-gallon car in the United States.

Hmm. Who else told government control companies what cars to make? Volkswagen ring a bell?
