different industries. That's why I said I was speaking in general rather than in terms of Ford. Nevertheless, lack of a national insurance plan s a major, major factor in keeping small startups from threatening the big industrial dinosaurs. It's just that much harder for a lone genius to hire a few friends to gather in his garage with a little investment capital & start building cars propelled by his new perpetual motion machine. Frankly, the economic and structural problems of the American auto companies are a lot deeper than their need to provide health care.
