6. I was listening to an economist yesterday that concluded it would be 1 million plus.
Not only the immediate workers, but the dealerships, the supply industry, the local industries that the workers utilize, etc. It's the ripple effect, and it would be a disaster.

I also wonder what "the big 3" going under would do world wide. Would this also take Vauxhall, Holden, Opel, Saab, Daewoo, etc down? If so, you're looking at a worldwide employment disaster I would think. I guess maybe they would get chopped up and the other brands might be sold off. Scary nontheless.
