Automaker inhumane

How arrogant and inhumane can DaimlerChrysler be? On the eve of the announcement that it would have massive layoffs, the company introduces "the all-new Chrysler Challenger" (Chrysler's Saving Grace?; On Eve Of Widely Anticipated Cuts, Brampton Workers Learn They'll Build Dodge Challenger -- Feb. 14).
The company said it would produce an estimated 50,000 a year. Won't that be an astounding replacement for all those lost jobs that were finally announced (13,000 Chrysler Jobs Lost -- Region May Feel Some Pain -- Feb. 15)?
Not only does DaimlerChrysler make this depressing layoff announcement, but it recently made a deal with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile to build compact "world cars" in China. Why can't these cars be assembled in the North American plants that are being shut down?
