2008-2010 yillarda avtosanoat inqirozining AQShga ta'siri - Effects of the 2008–2010 automotive industry crisis on the United States

An avtomobil sotuvchisi yilda Orland, Kaliforniya keyin yopilgan General Motors uning tarkibida u va boshqa bir necha yuz dilerlar bilan aloqalarni uzish 11-bob 2009 yilda bankrotlikni qayta qurish bo'yicha harakatlar.[1]

2008 yil oxiridan boshlab, global miqyosda turg'unlik salbiy ta'sir ko'rsatdi Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlari iqtisodiyoti. Bir necha yillik pasayib ketgan avtomobillar savdosi va kam ta'minlangan kreditlarning kombinatsiyasi keng tarqalishiga olib keldi inqiroz ichida Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlari avtosanoati 2008 va 2009 yillarda.

2008 yil davomida avtomobillar savdosi keskin pasayganidan so'ng, ikkitasi "Katta uch "AQSh avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilari - General Motors (GM) va Chrysler - yaqinlashib kelayotgan naqd pul etishmovchiligini bartaraf etish uchun favqulodda kreditlarni talab qildi. 2009 yil aprelga kelib, vaziyat yomonlashdi, chunki GM ham, Chrysler ham yaqinda bankrotlik va tugatishga duch kelishdi. Katta miqdordagi ish yo'qotishlarni va umuman barqarorlikni buzadigan zararni oldini olish maqsadida ishlab chiqarish sohasi, BIZ. va Kanadalik hukumatlar misli ko'rilmagan moliyaviy yordam ko'rsatdilar yordam (85 milliard dollar) orqali kompaniyalarga eski qarzni qayta tuzish va jetsonga berishga imkon berish 11-bob bankrotlik. Ikkala kompaniya ham ushbu himoyani 1 iyunga qadar alohida topshirdi.

General Motors bankrotlikdan ko'pchilikka tegishli bo'lgan yangi kompaniya sifatida paydo bo'ldi Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlari G'aznachiligi, va Chrysler asosan egalik qilgan Birlashgan avtoulov ishchilari ittifoq va Italiya avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchisi tomonidan Fiat S.p.A.. Ikkala kompaniya ham yuzlab kompaniyalar bilan shartnomalarni bekor qilishdi dilerlik markazlari va GM bankrotlik protseduralari doirasida bir nechta brendlarini to'xtatdi. Ford Motor Company 2007 yilda olgan katta kredit liniyasi tufayli qisman bankrot bo'lmasdan omon qolishga muvaffaq bo'ldi.

AQSh avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilari inqirozdan chet ellik hamkasblariga qaraganda ko'proq ta'sir qilishdi Toyota. Keyingi 2000-yillardagi energiya inqirozi, AQSh avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilari yuqori daromaddan farqli o'laroq, yoqilg'ini tejaydigan vositalarni ishlab chiqara olmadilar sport vositalari 90-yillarning oxiri va 2000-yillarning boshlarida ommabop bo'lib, bu ortiqcha inventarizatsiya va kiruvchi mahsulotlarni keltirib chiqardi. Avtomobillar inqirozi pasayganidan beri, Amerikaning uchta avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchisi ham transport vositalarining sotilishini ko'paytirdi va foyda keltirdi.

2012 yildan boshlab sanoat ma'lum darajada tiklandi. GM 2011 yilda 9 milliondan ortiq avtomobil sotgan, bu Toyota kompaniyasidan ko'proq. 2011 yil may oyida Oq Uy Milliy Iqtisodiy Kengashining hisobotiga ko'ra, AQSh hukumati 80 milliard dollarlik qarzining 14 milliard dollarini bekor qilishi kerak.

2012 yilga kelib, so'rovnomalar Pew tadqiqot markazi va Quinnipiac University Polling Institute Amerika jamoatchiligi hozirda qutqaruv yordami Amerika iqtisodiyoti uchun foydali bo'lgan deb hisoblayotganligini ko'rsating.

Ba'zilar ta'kidlashlaricha, inqiroz asosan AQShning Buyuk Uchlik avtokonsernlarining ishi natijasida sodir bo'lgan, ular osiyolik hamkasblaridan farqli o'laroq, offshor ishlab chiqarishga kirish huquqi cheklangan. Tahlilchilar ta'kidlashlaricha, asosan Osiyoda, balki AQShda ham avtomobil ishlab chiqaradigan Osiyo kompaniyalari shu kabi muammolarga duch kelmagan. Ular Tinch okeanining chekka mintaqalarida ixcham avtomobillarni arzon narxlarda ishlab chiqarishga muvaffaq bo'lishdi (dollar bilan).[2][3] 2008 yil 22-dekabrdagi maqola The New York Times "Ko'pincha, transplantatsiya deb ataladigan narsalar - Qo'shma Shtatlarda yirik operatsiyalarga ega bo'lgan xorijiy kompaniyalarga tegishli avtomobil kompaniyalari - chuqur cho'ntaklarga va etarli kreditga ega va ular General Motors va Chrysler singari potentsial bankrotlikka duch kelmaydilar."[4] Tanqidning aksariyati, ular o'rtasidagi tuzilmaviy farqlarga qaratilgan Katta uch va "transplantatsiya" (AQShda ishlab chiqaradigan xorijiy kompaniyalar), bu katta xarajatlar farqiga olib keladi.[5]

AQShning katta uchligi dastlab ancha qimmat bo'lgan avtomobil yoqilg'ilari tufayli zaiflashdi[6] bilan bog'langan 2003–2008 yillarda neft inqirozi bu, xususan, xaridorlarning katta narsalardan yuz o'girishiga sabab bo'ldi sport vositalari (SUV) va yuk mashinalari,[7] Amerikaning asosiy bozori "Katta uch " (General Motors, Ford va Chrysler ). AQSh avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilari ham kasaba uyushmasiga o'xshash ish haqiga, nafaqalarga, sog'liqni saqlashga va pensiyalarga nisbatan ancha yuqori ish haqi sarflanishiga duch kelishdi.[8] Mehnat tinchligi evaziga menejment o'z kasaba uyushmalariga imtiyozlar berdi, natijada raqobatbardosh bo'lmagan xarajatlar tuzilmalari va katta meros xarajatlari kelib chiqdi.[9][10] Bundan tashqari, AQShda sotilgan avtomobillar hajmi uy kreditlari liniyalari bilan sezilarli darajada bog'liq bo'lib, 2006 yilda sotuvlarning 24 foizi shu tarzda moliyalashtirildi.[11] Ushbu kreditlarning mavjudligi 2008 yilda to'satdan quriganida ipoteka inqirozi, avtomobillar savdosi keskin pasayib ketdi, 2006 yildagi 17 milliondan 2009 yilda 10,6 milliongacha.[12]

2006 yilda, Iste'molchilarning hisobotlari 10 ta eng yaxshi deb hisoblangan 10 ta mashinaning barchasi Yaponiya kompaniyalari tomonidan ishlab chiqarilganligi haqida xabar berdi.[13] 1993 yildan 2008 yilgacha Michigan 83000 Big Three avtomobil ishlab chiqaradigan ish joyini yo'qotgan bo'lsa, shu vaqt ichida Alabama, Missisipi, Tennessi, Kentukki, Jorjiya, Shimoliy Karolina, Janubiy Karolina, Virjiniya va Texasda 91 mingdan ortiq yangi avtoulov ishlab chiqaradigan ish o'rinlari yaratildi.[14] Eslatib o'tamiz, Michigan shtatida 83 ming ish o'rni yo'qolgan va boshqa shtatlarda yo'qolgan avtomobil ish joylari haqida ma'lumot yo'q. Avtomobillarni tadqiq qilish markazi, xorijiy transplantatsiya natijasida yaratilgan har bir ish uchun, 6,1 ish o'rinlari Buyuk Uchlik tomonidan yo'qolganligini taxmin qildi.

Ko'rsatilgan yordam General Motors va Chrysler tomonidan Obama ma'muriyati dastlab mashhur bo'lmagan, 2009 yil mart oyida CNN / Opinion Research Corporation so'rovnomasida amerikaliklarning atigi 37% ma'qullangan.[15] 2009 yil iyun Wall Street Journal /NBC News So'rov natijalariga ko'ra 39% ma'qullandi.[16]

Biroq, tadbirdan uch yil o'tgach o'tkazilgan ikkita so'rov natijalari shuni ko'rsatadiki, amerikaliklar oxir-oqibat avtoulovni qutqarishni qo'llab-quvvatlashdi. 2012 yil aprel oyida o'tkazilgan so'rovnoma Quinnipiac University Polling Institute shuni ko'rsatadiki, amerikalik saylovchilarning 53% yordamni qo'llab-quvvatlaydi va 50% bu muvaffaqiyatli bo'ldi deb hisoblaydi.[17] A Pew tadqiqot markazi 2012 yil fevral oyida o'tkazilgan so'rov natijalariga ko'ra, hozirda so'ralgan kattalarning 56 foizi hukumat General Motors va Chrysler kompaniyalariga kreditlar berishni "iqtisodiyot uchun foydali" deb hisoblamoqda.[18]

Sanoat va mehnat statistikasi

O'sha paytda "Katta uchlik" ishchilari, ehtiyot qismlar etkazib beruvchilari va avtoulovlarning sotuvchilari - taxminan 1,6 million kishini tashkil etdi.[19] Qo'shma Shtatlarda avtoulov bilan bog'liq barcha sanoat tarmoqlari va bozordan keyingi xizmat ko'rsatish korxonalari taxminan 3,1 million kishini ish bilan ta'minlagan. AQSh Mehnat statistikasi byurosi 2008 yil sentyabr oyidan boshlab ishchilarni quyidagi segmentlarga ajratadi: ehtiyot qismlar ishlab chiqarish - 504,000; Ta'mirlash ishlari - 864 000; Ulgurji savdo operatsiyalari - 340 000; Dilerlik operatsiyalari - 1,2 million; va ishlab chiqarish - 114,000. GM butun Shimoliy Amerikada to'g'ridan-to'g'ri 123 mingni ishlaydi.[20] Taxminan ikki million kishi sog'liqni saqlash sohasiga ishongan va 775 ming nafaqaxo'r avtosanoat pensiyalarini yig'adi.[19]

Bir soatlik ish haqi va nafaqalar

Gari Burtless ning Brukings instituti soatlik ish haqi Katta Uchlik va transplantatsiya o'rtasida o'xshashligini ta'kidladi. "A tomonidan olingan asosiy soatlik ish haqi BAA Big Three zavodidagi ishchi AQShdagi zavodda Toyota yoki Honda ishchisi olgan ish haqiga yaqin. 2007 yilda BAW tomonidan kelishilgan ish haqi soatiga taxminan $ 28 edi. Yangi ishchilar uchun soatlik ish haqi soatiga $ 14 dan past bo'lgan; katta ishchilar ko'proq pul ishlashdi. BAW a'zolari va AQShdagi xorijiy plita ishlab chiqaradigan fabrikalardagi ishchilar o'rtasidagi katta xarajatlar farqi qo'shimcha foyda keltiradi. BAW o'z a'zolari uchun saxiy pensiyalar va sog'liq uchun imtiyozlar uchun kurashda eng muvaffaqiyatli Amerika kasaba uyushmalaridan biri bo'ldi. "[21]

Dan Ikenson Kato instituti "umumiy kompensatsiya - bu kompaniyalarga ish haqi va GM uchun bu soatiga 73 dollar, Toyota uchun esa 48 dollar.. Katta Uchlik va barcha xorijiy yorliq ishlab chiqaruvchi kompaniyalar o'rtasidagi o'rtacha narx farqi soatiga 30 dollarni tashkil etadi. ulkan. " Uning hisob-kitobiga mehnat bilan bog'liq barcha xarajatlar (masalan, ish haqi, sog'liqni saqlash va pensiya - hozirgi ishchilar va nafaqaxo'rlar uchun) kiradi.[21]

Endryu Sorkin The New York Times GM va Chrysler transplantatsiyadan soatiga 10-20 dollar ko'proq pul to'lashini ko'rsatdi; bu avtomobil tadqiqotlari markazi xodimi Devid Koul tomonidan qattiq tortishuvlarga uchradi.[22][23]

Katta uchlikdagi ishlab chiqarish ishchilarining o'rtacha yillik ish haqi 2007 yilda 67 480 dollarni, malakali ishchilar uchun esa 81 940 dollarni tashkil etdi. Kanadada GMning 2008 yilgi o'rtacha ish haqi (ish haqi va imtiyozlarni ham hisobga olgan holda) soatiga $ 69, Toyota esa ishlab chiqarish samaradorligi bilan soatiga $ 48 ni tashkil etdi.[24]

Ga ko'ra Heritage Foundation, nafaqaxo'rlar va ishchilarning nisbati Katta Uchlikda farq qiladi. GM-ning har bir faol ishchisiga 2006 yilda 3,8 nafaqaxo'r yoki qaramog'ida bo'lganlar to'g'ri kelgan. Chrysler-da 2,0, Fordda esa 1,6 kishi bor edi.[25] Bu shuni anglatadiki, GM uchun meros qilib qo'yilgan mehnat xarajatlari yuki uning raqobatchilariga qaraganda ancha katta.[26]

Piter Morici professori Merilend universiteti, kollej parki Biznes maktabi shundan dalolat beradiki, juda katta ishchi kuchi va mahsulot ishlab chiqarish xarajatlari katta uchlikni daromad olish va omon qolish uchun zarur bo'lgan yuqori sifatli transport vositalarini ishlab chiqarishga to'sqinlik qiladi.[9][27][28]

Osiyoga tegishli kompaniyalarning AQShdagi ishchilari asosan kasaba uyushmasidir; Katta Uchlik BAA bilan shartnomalar asosida bog'langan.

UAW ma'lumotlariga ko'ra, ish haqi 2006 yilda avtomobil ishlab chiqarish va sotish umumiy xarajatlarining 8,4 foizini tashkil etdi. "Avtomobil ishlab chiqarish va uni dilerga etkazish va uni sotishga tayyorlash xarajatlarining katta qismi, shu jumladan dizayn, muhandislik , marketing, xom ashyo, ijro etuvchi kompensatsiya va boshqa xarajatlar - to'g'ridan-to'g'ri yoki bilvosita ishlab chiqarish mehnatiga bog'liq emas. "[29]

Jared Bernshteyn, vitse-prezidentning bosh iqtisodchisi Jo Bayden, 2009 yil 7 aprelda bo'lib o'tgan intervyusida qayd etishicha, BAAning 2007 yilgi shartnomada bergan imtiyozlarning aksariyati faqat yangi ishga qabul qilinganlarga nisbatan qo'llanilgan. Keksa ishchilar "hali ham uzoq vaqt oldin imzolangan shartnomalardan foyda ko'rishadi".[30]

Ish uchun bank xarajatlari

The Detroyt yangiliklari 2005 yilda AQShning uchta yirik avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilari 12000 dan ortiq bo'sh ishchilarga "ish banki" dasturlarida to'liq ish haqi va nafaqalarini to'lashlari haqidagi hikoyani nashr etishdi. Dastur 1984 yil BAA bilan ishchilarning ish haqini himoya qilish va ishdan bo'shatishni to'xtatish uchun Buyuk Uchlik bilan tuzilgan mehnat shartnomalarida, avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilarning BAA bilan shartnomalari doirasida tashkil etilgan. Kasaba uyushmasining maqsadi ish joylari texnologik taraqqiyot yoki zavodlarni qayta qurish natijasida tugatilgan kasaba uyushma a'zolari uchun ish haqi va imtiyozlarni kafolatlash rejasi orqali ish joylarini himoya qilish edi. Ko'pgina hollarda ishchilarga ish banki orqali ish haqi hukumat va kompaniyalarning ishsizlik nafaqalari tugagandan keyingina to'lanadi. Ushbu ishchilarning bir qismi qayta tayyorlashga joylashtirildi.[31]

Ish joylari banklari natijasida AQSh avtomobilsozlari shartnoma bo'yicha birlashgan ishchilar kasaba uyushma a'zolariga ish haqi va nafaqalarining 85-95 foizini to'lashga majburdirlar - hatto ularning zavodlari yopilgan bo'lsa ham. Shartnomada GM to'rt yil ichida 2,1 milliard dollar ish joyidagi bank to'lovlarini, Chrysler o'z dasturi uchun 451 million dollar va ish haqi olgan kasaba uyushma xodimlari uchun yana 50 million dollar ajratmoqchi edi va Ford 944 million dollar ajratishga rozi bo'ldi. Piter Morici, professor Merilend universiteti, kollej parki Biznes maktabi, ish banki Buyuk Uchlik duch keladigan eng katta muammolardan biri bo'lganiga guvohlik berib, "Agar hozir Sent-Luisda zavod yopilsa va Kanzas-Siti shahrida yangi zavod ochilsa, ishchilarda yo'q Sent-Luisdan Kanzas-Siti shahriga ko'chish uchun; ular 105 ming dollar to'lashni tanlashi yoki Jobs Bank-ga borishlari mumkin, bu erda ular umrining oxirigacha ish haqining 95 foizini yig'ishlari mumkin. "[9]

Brendlar soni

GM-ning AQShda sotilgan sakkizta markasi bor edi (shu jumladan xorijdagi Vauxhaul, Opel, Holden brendlari va hozirgi vaqtda GM Daewoo deb nomlanuvchi GM Daewoo, hozirgi paytda GM Korea deb nomlangan), u bankrotlik paytida uchta brendni sotguncha va bittasini tugatmaguncha[32] to'rtta (Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC va Buick), Toyota esa faqat uchta. Ko'proq brendlar qo'shimcha marketing va mahsulot ishlab chiqarishga sarflanadigan xarajatlarni talab qiladi, bu esa raqobatga nisbatan qo'shimcha xarajatlarni keltirib chiqaradi. Bitta tahlilchi GM markalarini 8 dan 3 gacha qisqartirish har yili 5 milliard dollar tejashga imkon beradi deb taxmin qildi.[23]

Biroq, brendlar sonini kamaytirish uchun davlat franchayzing qonunlari tufayli dilerlik markazlarini yopish yoki konsolidatsiya qilish talab qilinadi, bu juda qimmatga tushadi. Masalan, GMning pensiyaga chiqishi Oldsmobile savdo markasi qariyb 2 milliard dollarga tushdi.[33]

Dilerlik markazlarining soni va nazorati

GM va Chrysler o'rtasida taxminan 50000 kishini ish bilan ta'minlaydigan 10 000 ga yaqin dilerlik kompaniyalari mavjud.[34] GM Toyota-ga qaraganda sakkizta brendga tarqalgan ko'plab kichikroq dilerlik kompaniyalariga ega. Dilerlik davlat qonunlari bilan himoyalangan, bu esa katta to'lovlarni to'lamasdan yopilishini qiyinlashtiradi.[iqtibos kerak ] Bu dilerlik islohotini bankrotlikdan himoya qilmasdan qiyinlashtiradi.[23]

Obligatsiya egalari

GM 43 milliard dollarlik qarz yukini ko'targan, har yili qariyb 3 milliard dollar foiz xarajatlari bilan. Agar obligatsiyalar egalari ulushlarni almashtirishgan bo'lsa oddiy aksiya foizlar to'lamaydigan (kapital), GMning qarzi va foiz yuki sezilarli darajada kamayadi.

Biroq, Chrysler va GM kompaniyalarining zayom egalari BAWga nisbatan teng bo'lmagan muomaladan shikoyat qilib, qarzlarni almashtirish bo'yicha takliflarni rad etishdi, chunki ularning qarzdorligi UAW sog'liqni saqlashga bo'lgan ishonchidan ikki baravar ko'p. BAWga tegishli ravishda yangi Chrysler va GM kompaniyalarining 50% va 40% ulushlari taklif qilingan edi, shu bilan birga obligatsiyalar egalari Chrysler uchun AQSh dollarida 33 sent va yangi GMning 10% olishlari kerak edi (tahlilchi GM taklifi shunday bo'lishini aytdi dollarga 24 tsentni qaytarishi rejalashtirilgan).[35] G'aznachilik ma'qullashi bilan, keyinchalik obligatsiyalar egalari uchun taklifga yana 15 foiz ulush uchun garovlar kiritilgan o'zgartirish kiritildi.

Obligatsiya egalari AQSh hukumatining aralashuvidan shikoyat qildilar, chunki BAWning prezidentga bergan siyosiy hissasi tufayli qarzdorlarning BAAni qo'llab-quvvatlashi to'g'risidagi da'volarining yuqori ustunligini chetlab o'tishdi. Barak Obama. "Chrysler" obligatsiyalari egalarining advokatlaridan biri avtoulov guruhining boshlig'i ekanligini aytdi Stiv Rattner obligatsiyalar egalari qo'mitasining muzokaralar talablarini e'tiborsiz qoldirdi, Rattner esa obligatsiya egasining obro'sidan birini ushlab qolish uchun yo'q qilish bilan tahdid qildi.[36] GM-ning bir egasi buni sotsialistik davlat aralashuvi deb ta'riflagan Ugo Chaves "s Venesuela, "Bu siz banan respublikasidan kutishingiz mumkin bo'lgan narsa. AQShdan emas".[37][38]

Obama Chrysler-ning bankrotlik to'g'risidagi ariza berishiga sabab bo'lgan so'nggi taklifni rad etganidan so'ng, Chrysler obligatsiyalari egalarini spekulyantlikda aybladi, ba'zilari bankrotlik sudyasi o'zlarining maxfiyligini himoya qilishdan bosh tortgandan keyin o'lim bilan tahdid qilishdi. Xedj fondlari ularning mijozlari orasida pensiya jamg'armalari va universitet fondlarini o'z ichiga olganligini ta'kidladilar. Taxminan 7 milliard AQSh dollari miqdoridagi GM obligatsiyalari "Mom va Pop-tipli investorlar" ga tegishli bo'lib, bitta advokat uni avtoritet nafaqaxo'rlar va nafaqaxo'rlar deb ta'riflaydi.[37][39]

Ajablanarli joyi yo'q, har qanday kapitalizatsiya (odatda bankrotlik yo'li bilan) sezilarli darajada pasayib ketgan mavjud bo'lgan oddiy aktsiyalarning qiymatini yo'q qiladi.[40]

Iqtisodiy ta'sir

Muvaffaqiyatsizlik iqtisodiyotga zarar etkazishi mumkin degan da'volar

Avtosanoat AQSh iqtisodiyotining asosiy tarkibiy qismidir. Iqtisodchilar 2007-2008 yilgi ma'lumotlardan foydalanib, 2008 yil yozida to'xtashga olib keladigan xarajatlarni taxmin qilish uchun siyosatchilarga bankrotlik ta'sirini tushunishda yordam beradigan mezonlarni belgilashdi. Bunday taxminlar 2008 yil oxirida siyosatchilar o'rtasida keng muhokama qilindi.[41] Katta uchlikni yopish Buyuk uchlikda juda katta maosh oladigan 240,000 ish joyini yo'qotish degani,[42] etkazib beruvchilar va mahalliy dilerlarda 980 mingta yuqori haq to'lanadigan ish joylarining yo'qolishi, shuningdek, butun iqtisodiyot davomida 1,7 million qo'shimcha ish joyining yo'qolishi - jami 3 million ish joyining yo'qolishi.

Hisob-kitoblarga ko'ra, Big Three-ning yopilishi birinchi yilda shaxsiy daromadning 151 milliard dollarga pasayishiga olib keladi va uch yil davomida 398 milliard dollar. Federal, shtat va mahalliy hukumat soliq tushumini yo'qotadi va buning o'rniga uch yil ichida jami 156 milliard dollarni tashkil etadi.[43]

Iqtisodchi Devid Uiss S&P kompaniyasi GM va Chrysler yo'q bo'lib ketsa, har yili import qilinadigan 1 millionga yaqin avtomobillar ko'payishi mumkin, bu AQSh iqtisodiyotidan taxminan 25 milliard dollarni olib tashlaydi, degan fikrni bildirdi. Bu yalpi ichki mahsulotni yiliga 0,2 foiz punktga qisqartirishi mumkin edi - bu yo'qolgan ish o'rinlari (ishsizlik darajasi) va ish haqi ta'sirini hisobga olmaganda.[44]

Muvaffaqiyatsizlik iqtisodiyot uchun zararli bo'lmaydi degan da'volar

2008 yil 19-noyabrda CNBC maqola, Jordan Kimmel, Magnet Investing kompaniyasining fond menejeri Randolf, Nyu-Jersi, agar Buyuk Uchta avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchi korxonalar tugatilsa yoki butunlay yopilsa, Honda va Toyota kabi xorijiy kompaniyalar AQShda yangi ishlab chiqarish korxonalarini ochadi va ish joyida uzoq muddatli yo'qotish yoki iqtisodiyotga zarar bo'lmaydi.[45]

Maykl Shuman Time jurnali ulkan korporatsiya muvaffaqiyatsizlikka uchragan bo'lsa-da, yomonlashishi mumkin, ammo uni yaxshilanish istiqbolisiz sun'iy ravishda saqlab qolish yaxshiroqdir. U AQShning mahalliy avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilarining qulab tushishini 1999 yildagi demontaj bilan taqqosladi Daewoo Group Janubiy Koreyada. Daewoo kompaniyasining Koreyaga mutanosib iqtisodiy ta'siri AQShga Buyuk Uchlikka qaraganda katta edi. Daewoo va boshqa koreys konglomeratlari muvaffaqiyatsizlikka duchor bo'lmaydilar degan ishonchning qat'iyatliligi ko'plab bankirlar va investorlarni o'zlarining yomon biznes-rejalari va foydasiz loyihalariga qaramay, doimiy ravishda pul mablag'larini isrof qilishlariga olib keldi, chunki Daewoo ushbu kreditlarni to'lay olmadi. Katta-katta muvaffaqiyatsizlikka olib keladigan tushunchalar bekor qilingandan so'ng, yirik konglomeratlar endi eng xavfsiz investitsiyalar deb hisoblanmayotganligi sababli, bankirlar va investorlar kapital och bo'lgan sohalarda (kichik firmalar, tadbirkorlar va iste'molchilar) yangi imkoniyatlarni moliyalashtirishni boshladilar, Koreyaning YaIM Daewoo bo'shashgandan keyin aslida ko'tarildi. Shuningdek, Shuman Yaponiya bilan o'xshash o'xshashlikni qayd etdi 1990-yillarning yo'qolgan o'n yilligi, bu erda banklar ularni ushlab qolish uchun juda katta ekanligini ta'kidlab, foydasiz "zombi firmalariga" yangi mablag'larni kiritishda davom etishdi. Biroq, ushbu kompaniyalarning aksariyati qarzdan qutulganlar, keyinchalik qutqarib qolish uchun omon qolish uchun ko'proq ish qilishlari mumkin edi, bu esa iqtisodchining Yaponiyani "yutqazganlarning jannat" sifatida ta'riflashiga olib keldi. Shumanning ta'kidlashicha, ushbu amaliyot tugamaguncha Yaponiya iqtisodiyoti tiklana boshlamagan.[46]

Qayta qurish jarayoni alternativalari

Soha mutaxassislari, akademiklar va ommaviy axborot vositalari "Katta uchlikni" isloh qilish yoki qayta tuzish bo'yicha turli xil tavsiyalar berishdi. Ularning ko'pchiligiga bankrotlik, sud tomonidan nazorat qilinadigan, kompaniyani qayta tashkil etish yoki to'xtatish usuli kiradi.

Bankrotlik va alternativalar

Bankrotlik haqidagi munozaralar istiqbollari atrofida joylashgan 11-bob bankrotlik, odatda qayta qurish deb nomlangan, odatda korporatsiya uchun shartnomalarni qayta tuzish, aktivlarni yoki tarkibiy qismlarni naqd pulga sotish, qarzni kechirish yoki boshqa yo'l bilan o'zini hayotga layoqatli biznes-korxona sifatida isloh qilish uchun imkoniyatlar oynasini ta'minlash uchun ishlatiladi. Muqobil, Bankrotlik 7-bob, korxonani yopish va tugatish va sotish uchun ishlatiladi, shu bilan daromad qarzdorlarga beriladi. Bankrotlikning ikkala turida ham aktsiyadorlar odatda investitsiyalarni yo'qotadilar va qarzdorlar korporatsiya ustidan nazoratni qo'lga kiritadilar. 2008 yil noyabr oyi davomida munozaralar 11-bobni topshirish foydali bo'ladimi yoki yo'qligini muhokama qildi.[47]

11-bob bankrotlik foydasiga bahslar

2008 yil 19-noyabrda tahririyat Forbes, Blythe McGarvie bankrotlik avtomobilsozlik raqobatbardosh va barqaror bo'lishiga imkon berishini aytdi va aviakompaniya sanoatining bankrotligini misol qilib keltirdi.[48]

Uorton moliya professori Jeremi Siegel, "Investorlar uchun kelajak" kitobining muallifi, 11-bobdagi bankrotlik Detroytni qayta tashkil etishga imkon beradi, ammo ba'zilar qo'rqadigan ish joylarini katta yo'qotishlariga olib kelmaydi. "Avtosanoatning har qanday yordami, albatta, BAAning sog'lig'i uchun yordamdir. Hammasi shu."[49]

Garovga qarshi chiquvchilar, avtoulovlarni ishlab chiqaruvchilarning muammolarini bankrotlik sudi tomonidan mavjud shartnomalarni bekor qilish uchun qonuniy kuchga ega bo'lgan, xarajatlarni to'kib yuboradigan va qarzlarini endi to'lay olmaydigan samaraliroq hal qilish mumkin deb o'ylashadi. Ular hukumatga "avtomobil podshosi "samarasiz bo'lar edi, chunki ularning harakatlari Vashington siyosatiga ta'sir qilishi mumkin.[50][51]

Massachusets shtatining sobiq gubernatori Mitt Romni ichida yugurish Respublika partiyasi prezidentlik saylovlari, 2012 yil, bu sohaga hukumat yordamini emas, balki bankrotlikni ma'qullaganligini tasdiqladi, garchi u buni ma'qullagan bo'lsa Muammoli aktivlarni yo'qotish dasturi (TARP) umuman olganda.[27][52]

11-bobdagi bankrotlikka qarshi bahslar

Tanqidchilari 11-bob Bankrotlik restrukturizatsiya jarayonida iste'molchilar bankrot bo'lgan avtoulov ishlab chiqaruvchisidan avtomobil sotib olishni xohlamaydilar, chunki avtoulovning kafolatni qo'llab-quvvatlash qobiliyati sotib olish to'g'risida qaror qabul qilishning kalitidir. Advokatlarning ta'kidlashicha, hukumat yoki xususiy kreditorlar kafolatni qoplashni ta'minlash uchun fond tashkil qilishi mumkin.[23]

GM bankrotlik ish joylariga va AQSh federal hukumatining to'lov qobiliyatiga tahdid soladi, deb ta'kidladi Pensiya ta'minotini kafolatlash korporatsiyasi (PBGC). PBGC direktori shunday dedi: "GM bizga ularning pensiya rejasining moliyalashtirilgan holati to'g'risida aniq javob bera olmadi. Agar ular javob bermasa, biz vaziyatni muvaffaqiyatli nazorat qila olmaymiz."[20]GM pensiya jamg'armasida amaldagi majburiyatlar uchun etarli mablag 'mavjud edi, ammo Deutsche Bank tomonidan e'lon qilingan hisobotda 2008 yil oxiriga qadar pensiya 18 milliard dollarni tashkil qilishi mumkinligi taxmin qilinmoqda.[20]

Oldindan qadoqlangan 11-bobdagi bankrotlik imkoniyatlari

"Oldindan qadoqlangan" 11-bob bankrotlik degani, asosiy manfaatdor tomonlar bankrotlik protsessi davomida nima bo'lishini oldindan kelishib oldilar, bu esa natijaga nisbatan aniqlik va bankrotlikni himoya qilishga sarflanadigan kam vaqtni beradi. Advokatlar buni afzalroq deb ta'kidladilar, ammo tanqidchilarning ta'kidlashicha, barcha manfaatdor tomonlar bankrotlikdan tashqari sharoitlarda kelisha olishlari mumkin emas.[53]

Hukumat aktivlarni sotishni osonlashtirdi

The Brukings instituti Big Three aktivlari zavod va ishchilar resurslarini yaxshiroq joylashtirishga qodir bo'lgan boshqa firmalarga o'tkazilishi yoki sotilishi to'g'risida hukumat tomonidan ishlab chiqilgan echimni taklif qildi. "[Hozirda] hukumat o'ynashi mumkin bo'lgan eng konstruktiv rol - bu kapitalni qisqa muddatli infuzionini ta'minlash, bu qat'iyan qaytarib berish qoidalari, bu asosan avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilardan o'z aktivlarini boshqa muvaffaqiyatli kompaniyalarga sotishni talab qiladi." Mualliflarning ta'kidlashicha, katta uchlik amerikaliklar sotib olishni istamaydigan, dastlab bankrotlikni qayta tuzish bilan hal qilinmaydigan, ish haqi va nafaqa kabi xarajatlarni hisobga olgan holda ishlab chiqaradigan avtomobillarni ishlab chiqaradi.[54]

Hukumat qayta qurishni osonlashtirdi

Iqtisodchi va muallif Jeffri Saks hukumat va xususiy sanoat hamkorligini gibrid va yoqilg'i kameralari asosida "yuqori yurish vositasi iqtisodiyoti" ni yaratib, avtomobilsozlik sanoatini o'zgartirishga da'vat etdi. Kreditlar zudlik bilan, shartlar bilan ta'minlanadi. U AQShning "texnologik va milliy xavfsizligini, iqlim xavfsizligini va AQShning global raqobatbardoshligini keskin yaxshilaydigan" avtomobil texnologik etakchiligining strategiyasini himoya qiladi.[55]

Hukumat aralashuviga qarshi dalillar

2008 yil 24-noyabrda Kongress a'zosi Ron Pol (R-TX) shunday deb yozgan edi: "Ishdan chiqqan kompaniyalarni qutqarishda, ular iqtisodiyotning samarali a'zolaridan pulni olib qo'yishadi va ishdan chiqqanlarga berishadi. Eskirgan yoki barqaror bo'lmagan biznes modellari bo'lgan kompaniyalarni qo'llab-quvvatlash orqali hukumat ularning resurslari tugatilishining oldini oladi va Ularni yaxshiroq va unumli foydalanishga qodir bo'lgan boshqa kompaniyalarga taqdim etish. Sog'lom erkin bozorning muhim elementi shundaki, ular muvaffaqiyat qozonganda ham muvaffaqiyatsizlikka yo'l qo'yilishi kerak, ammo buning o'rniga mukofotlar teskari yo'naltirilgan - muvaffaqiyatli korxonalardan olingan mablag'lar muvaffaqiyatsiz bo'lganlarga beriladi, bu bizning iqtisodiyotimizga qanday foyda keltirishi mumkinligi menga bog'liq emas ... Bu ishlamaydi, ishlamaydi ... Aksariyat amerikaliklarga bu aniq biz korporativ kronikizmni rad etishimiz kerak va erkin bozorning tabiiy qoidalari va rag'batlantirishlari byurokratlar va siyosatchilarning xohish-irodasini emas, balki iqtisodiyotimizdagi g'olib va ​​yutqazganlarni tanlashiga imkon berishimiz kerak. "[56]

2008 yil 17 dekabrdagi fikrlar ustunida iqtisodchi Tomas Souell uchun hech qanday yordam yo'qligini aytdi ot va buggy 100 yil oldin uning o'rnini avtomobil bilan almashtirgan sanoat, va g'oliblar va yutqazuvchilarni siyosatchilar o'rniga mijozlar aniqlaganda umumiy hayot darajasi yuqori bo'ladi.

Boshqaruv va boshqaruv kengashidagi o'zgarishlar

Tanqidchilar General Motors kompaniyasining yuqori menejmentini olib tashlash haqida bahslashdilar.[23] Bunday olib tashlash odatda a yordam.

Birlashishlar

Katta uchlikning bir yoki bir nechtasi birlashtirilib, xarajatlarni tejashga imkon beradi va eng daromadli brendlarga e'tiborni qaratishi mumkin edi. Biroq, BAW va CAW bu harakatga qarshi chiqdi, chunki bu albatta ishdan bo'shatishni o'z ichiga oladi. GM va Chrysler muzokaralar olib borishdi, natijada Chrysler bilan Italiya avtomobilsozlik kompaniyasining to'liq sho'ba korxonasi bo'lgan 2009 yil 10 iyun holatiga ko'ra. Fiat.[23]

Avtoulov ishlab chiqaruvchilari bankrotlikdan qutulish uchun 25 milliard dollarlik moliyaviy yordamga muhtoj bo'lishlarini tushuntirishdi. Senat ushbu masala bo'yicha ikkiga bo'lindi. Respublikachilar senatorlari yordam berishni xohlamadilar, ba'zilari hatto kasaba uyushmalari bilan kelishilgan ish shartnomalaridan ishlab chiqaruvchilarni ozod qilish uchun bankrotlik eng yaxshi variant bo'lishi mumkin deb taxmin qilishdi. Demokratlar esa, saylangan Prezidentga muvofiq tezkor choralar ko'rish zarurligini ta'kidlashda davom etishdi Obama masala bo'yicha pozitsiyasi.[60] Rik Vagoner, General Motors rahbari, agar avtomobilsozlik ishlamay qolsa, birinchi yil ichida 3 million ish joyini yo'qotish mumkin deb taxmin qildi. "Bularning barchasi faqat Detroytdan ko'proq narsa haqida. Bu AQSh iqtisodiyotini halokatli qulashdan qutqarish haqida", dedi u.[61]

2008 yil 19-noyabrdagi tinglovda, Gari Akkerman (D-NY) "Balki siz odamlar xohlagan mashinalarni sotish uchun nima qilayotganingizni bizga ayting", dedi va Maykl Kapuano (D-Mass) "Mening qo'rquvim shu pulni olib 25 yil davomida qilgan ahmoqona qarorlaringizni davom ettirishingizdir" dedi.[62]

2008 yil 2 dekabrda Katta Uchlik Kongressga qayta ko'rib chiqilgan rejalarini taqdim etdi, unda ma'murlarning ish haqini pasaytirish, brendlar sonini kamaytirish va kompaniyalar qarzlarini qayta moliyalashtirish kabi keskin choralar mavjud edi.[67] Ma'lum bo'lishicha, so'ralgan yordamning umumiy miqdori hozirda 34 milliard dollarga ko'tarilgan. Kongress tezda javob bermasa, nima bo'lishini yanada dramatik tarzda tasvirlab berar ekan, Chrysler GM zudlik bilan 4 milliard dollar so'raganda, ishlashni davom ettirish uchun oy oxiriga qadar 7 milliard dollar kerakligini aytdi.[68]

NBC telekanalida berilgan intervyusida Matbuot bilan tanishing 2008 yil 7 dekabrda saylangan Prezident Barak Obama "Men ko'rishni istagan so'nggi narsa - bu avtosanoatning yo'q bo'lib ketishi, ammo men bundan tashqari, biz sanoatga 10 milliard yoki 20 milliard yoki 30 milliard dollar yoki biron bir milliard dollar sarflamasligimizdan xavotirdaman. olti oydan bir yil o'tgach, ular qo'llarida shlyapa bilan qaytib kelib: "Menga ko'proq bering", deyishadi.[69]

Kongressni qutqarish to'g'risidagi qonun loyihasi

2008 yil 9-dekabrda muzokarachilar Oq Uy va Kongress o'rtasida paydo bo'lgan kelishuv shartlarini oshkor qildilar, unga ko'ra Buyuk Uchlikka qisqa muddatli 15 milliard dollarlik yordam federal tomonidan nazorat qilinadi ".avtomobil podshosi "yoki ishonchli shaxs.[70][71]

2008 yil 10-dekabr kuni Uy moliyaviy xizmatlari qo'mitasi taklif qilingan moliyaviy yordam paketi nusxasini chiqardi[72] GM, Ford va Chrysler uchun. Qonun loyihasida 'tayinlash taklif qilindiavtomobil podshosi "avtoulovlarni qayta qurish ishlarini nazorat qilish,"[73] va rahbarlarning bonuslariga cheklovlar, oltin parashyut paketlar va talab qilinadigan avtoulov ishlab chiqaruvchilari har qanday xususiy yoki ijaraga olingan samolyotlarni sotishlari yoki o'zlaridan voz kechishlari kerak.

Senat yordamni rad etadi

11 dekabrda qonun loyihasi qabul qilinmadi, Senatning protsessual ovoz berishida 52-35 yutqazdi.[74] GM tomonidan berilgan bayonotda, muvaffaqiyatsizlikka uchraganidan chuqur hafsalasi pir bo'lganligi va "Biz qayta qurish jarayonini davom ettirish va mavjud iqtisodiy inqirozga qarshi kurashish uchun vositalarni olish uchun barcha imkoniyatlarimizni baholaymiz", deyilgan.[75] Krislerning aytishicha, "Senatda sodir bo'lgan narsadan xafa bo'lganligi va kompaniyaning kelajakdagi hayotiyligini ta'minlashga yordam beradigan amaliy echim izlashni davom ettiradi".[75][76]

Bush yordamni ma'qullaydi

19-dekabr kuni Jorj V.Bush AQShning GM va Chrysler avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilariga 17,4 milliard dollar miqdorida kreditlar beradigan "hozirgi AQSh iqtisodiy sanoat sharoitida" AQSh avtosanoatining qulashiga yo'l qo'yish mas'uliyatli harakat emas "deb ta'kidlagan qutqaruv rejasini ma'qullaganini e'lon qildi.[77] Bush hozirda 13,4 milliard dollar ajratdi, 2009 yil fevralida yana 4 milliard dollar ajratildi. Mablag'lar bu mablag'lar hisobidan amalga oshiriladi 2008 yilgi favqulodda iqtisodiy barqarorlashtirish to'g'risidagi qonun.[78] General Motors 9,4 milliard, Chrysler esa 4 milliard dollar oladi.[79]

Biroq, G'aznachilikda TARP mablag'larini avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilarga yo'naltirish uchun qonuniy vakolat yo'qligi haqida bahs yuritilgan edi, chunki TARP TARPning 102-bo'limiga binoan "moliya institutlari" bilan cheklangan. Shuningdek, TARP mablag'larini GMAC kabi avtomobil ishlab chiqaruvchilarni moliyalashtirish operatsiyalariga taqdim etish Kongressning TARP mablag'larini haqiqiy "moliya institutlari" bilan cheklash niyatiga zid ekanligi ta'kidlandi.[80] 2008 yil 19 dekabrda Prezident Bush o'zining ijro etuvchi hokimiyatidan foydalanib, TARP mablag'lari moliyaviy inqirozni oldini olish uchun shaxsan o'zi zarur deb hisoblagan har qanday dasturga sarflanishi mumkinligini e'lon qildi va 102-bo'lim majburiy emas deb e'lon qildi.[iqtibos kerak ]

Federal qarz General Motors kompaniyasining darhol bankrot bo'lishiga yo'l qo'ymaydi. Qutqaruv har ikkala kompaniyadan uzoq muddatli hayotiyligini namoyish etish uchun o'z faoliyatini keskin ravishda qayta tuzishni talab qildi.[78] In February 2009, the Obama administration would determine the automakers' progress in meeting the conditions of the loans, and then decide whether to supply more government aid or to force automakers to repay the loans and face bankruptcy.[79] The loans would carry an interest rate of 5 percent but may rise to 10 percent if the auto manufacturers default on them.[81]

Presidential task force on the auto industry

Ostida Obama ma'muriyati, the idea of a car czar was considered and ultimately abandoned in favor of joint Lourens Summers /Timoti Geytner oversight of a possible second round of lending to the auto companies. In mid-February, the auto companies GM and Chrysler applied for additional funds.

The task force was formed in February 2009 instead, and began meetings at that time.[82][83]

Second bailout

On February 18, 2009, General Motors and Chrysler again approached the U.S. government, in regard to obtaining a second bridging loan of $21.6 billion (£15.2 billion). $16.6 billion of this would go to General Motors, while Chrysler would take $5 billion. General Motors agreed to shed 47,000 jobs, close five plants, and axe 12 car models. Chrysler agreed to cut 3,000 jobs, cut one shift from production, and axe three car models.[84] General Motors was also looking to sell its Swedish subsidiary, Saab. GM made no mention of plans for its German subsidiary, Opel, or its British subsidiary, Vauxxoll.[iqtibos kerak ]

Obama address to joint session of Congress

Uning ichida joint address to Congress in 2009, Obama stated that

We will invest fifteen billion dollars in technologies like ... more efficient cars and trucks built right here in America. As for auto industry, everyone recognizes that years of bad decision-making and global recession have pushed our automakers to the brink. We should not, and will not, protect them from their own bad practices. But we are committed to the goal of a re-tooled, re-imagined auto industry that can compete and win. Millions of jobs depend on it. Scores of communities depend on it. And I believe the nation that invented the automobile cannot walk from it[85]

Chrysler bankruptcy

On April 30, 2009, Chrysler filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after talks with lenders broke down. On the May 14, 2009 Chrysler announced it was to close 25% of its US dealerships as part of its restructuring process.[86]

General Motors bankrotligi

Only days after approaching the U.S. Government to seek further funding, General Motors published its losses for the final quarter of 2008 to be at $9.6 billion (£6.7 billion). This brought its overall 2008 losses to $30.9 billion. In 2007, General Motors made a loss of $38.7 billion. In the light of the published losses GM has conceded that it expected auditors to question its future viability when it releases its annual report in March.[87]

On the June 1, 2009, General Motors filed for 11-bob bankrotlik after failing to successfully negotiate deals with bond holders. On the day the application was made, General Motors was largely a nationalized institution (the U.S. government owning 60% and the Canadian 12.5%), the remaining private stakes mainly being owned by employees. The application to a court in New York marked the largest failure of an industrial company in US history. The restructuring would drastically change General Motors, with at least 20,000 US employees likely to lose their jobs. General Motors had previously announced that another nine plants will be closed while three more will be idled. GM's chief executive Fritz Henderson appealed to customers to give the company another chance, claiming "the GM that let too many of you down is now history".[88]

A May 18, 2009 article in Washington Post said that seven weeks after the Obama administration fired GM CEO G. Richard Wagoner Jr., Wagoner had still not received the $20 million severance package that the company had contractually promised him.[89]

During a June 9, 2009 interview, Edward E. Whitacre Jr., the new chairman of GM, said, "I don't know anything about cars ... A business is a business, and I think I can learn about cars. I'm not that old, and I think the business principles are the same."[90]

Amount of investment

A February 18, 2009 CNN article said the bailout could cost U.S. taxpayers $130 billion, but this number does not consider that monies recovered later.[91]

As of early June 2009, the Bush and Obama administrations had invested $80.3 billion.[92]

On May 24, 2011, Chrysler repaid the last of the money to the U.S. and Canadian treasuries, several years ahead of schedule.[93]

Image issues

Issues involving the jamoat obro'si of the companies involved in this crisis also played key parts during the process.

GM advertisement: an apology and a recommitment

On December 8, 2008, General Motors unveiled a new advertisement where the company apologized for disappointing and violating the trust of American consumers. They pledged to make a commitment to regain focus on core brands and away from pickups and SUVs, declaring they needed to make such an unfiltered statement "since quite a bit of media commentary has not kept pace with our actual progress to transform the company."[94]

November 19, 2008 Congressional hearing

Ga binoan ABC News and other media outlets, the Big Three CEOs (Rik Vagoner of GM, Alan Mulally of Ford and Robert Nardelli of Chrysler) who attended the November 19, 2008, meeting in Washington D.C. to request a bailout traveled to the meeting in private luxury jet aircraft.[95] A November 19 CNN article noted that "Gari Akkerman, D-NY ... and several other representatives suggested that it was difficult to give money to the automakers when the CEOs had all flown to Washington on corporate jets. 'Those types of symbolic things matter and set a tone,' said Piter Roskam, R-Ill."[62] Uy spikeri Nensi Pelosi summed up the Congressional response to their requests with the statement "Until they show us the plan, we cannot show them the money," and demanded that the automakers return to submit convincing turnaround plans by Dec. 2.[96]

A November 19, 2008, CNN article quoted Thomas Schatz, president of Fuqarolar hukumat chiqindilariga qarshi, as saying, "They're coming to Washington to beg the taxpayers to help them. It's unseemly to be running around on a $20,000 flight versus a $500 round trip." The article noted that although it was not known how much the private flights cost, $20,000 was said to be a reasonable estimation.[97]

On December 2, 2008, it was reported that General Motors and Ford were planning to sell their fleets of corporate luxury jets.[98]

Hybrid electric vehicle usage

Wagoner, Mulally and Nardelli each drove separately to Washington for a December 2 Congressional hearing in gibrid elektr transport vositalari after the above-noted criticism for arriving to Washington for the November hearing in private jets. Wagoner rode in a Chevrolet Malibu hybrid accompanied by Beth Lowery, the company's top environmental and safety official. Mulally travelled in a Ford Escape Hybrid.[99] Nardelli arrived in a Chrysler Aspen Gibrid.

Non-ecological past practices

Dan energy-conservation point of view the Big Three have a negative image. Some ecology-minded American view with little sympathy the big automakers' reputation for maximizing profits at the environment's expense, and often believe they deliberately destroying mass-transport systems and privately owned railways between the 1920s and 1960s.[100][shubhali ]Some have alleged that The Big Three contributed to the development of suburbs, seen as fuel-inefficient in that it requires commuters to drive to cities from increasingly more distant suburbs. Facing a saturated car market in the U.S. in the early 1920s, GM engaged in a controversial policy along with road-builders that triggered the massive shift from the mass transportation of the previous century to the "one-person-one-car" trip of today.[101]

Bond ratings downgraded

On December 19, 2008, Fitch reytinglari downgraded the Issuer Default Rating of General Motors and Chrysler to "C," indicating "default is imminent."[102]

A December 22, 2008, article from Bloomberg reported that General Motors and Ford "had their debt cut further below investment status by Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service. GM's unsecured debt was trimmed one level to C, or 11 grades below investment quality, by S&P. Moody's lowered its rating on $26 billion in Ford debt by two grades to Caa3, or nine below investment quality."[103]

Lobbying and other financial ties between Big Three and Congress

The Big Three spent almost $50 million to lobby Congress during the first nine months of 2008. Senator Karl Levin (D-Michigan) received $438,304 over 30 years, or $14,610 a year. House member Jon Dingell (D-Michigan) received nearly $1 million over his 54 years in Congress, or $18,518 a year. House member Djo Knollenberg (R-Michigan) received $879,327 over only 16 years in office, or $54,957 a year. Dingell's wife Debbie used to work as a lobbyist for General Motors, and after she married Dingell, she became a senior GM executive at an undisclosed salary. As of May 2008, Dingell owned GM stock worth up to $350,000, GM stock options worth up to $1 million more, and a GM pension fund. In 2000, the Dingells owned GM stock options worth up to $5 million. In 1998, Dingell sold GM stock options worth up to $1 million.[104] The value of that stock, options and pension has been lost in the bankruptcy restructuring that Congress approved for GM.

GM sent letters to tens of thousands of their dealers, supplier executives, employees and union members, asking recipients to call and write Congress with several "talking points" about the potential effects of a GM bankruptcy.[20]

Corporate turnaround proposals and strategies

Products: electric and hybrid vehicles

Detroit's "Big Three" automakers went to Washington, D.C., on December 2 (arriving in Washington in hybrids after being criticized for traveling to the earlier November Senate hearing in private jets) to present their long-term viability plans to the Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlari Kongressi, and those plans included significant commitments to fuel-saving va elektr transport vositasi texnologiyalar.[105]

Ford Motor Company unveiled an aggressive plan to electrify its fleet of vehicles, including plans to offer an all-electric van-type vehicle in 2010 for use in commercial fleets, complemented by a battery-powered sedan in 2011. By 2012, the company will bring a family of regular hybrids, plaginli duragaylar va akkumulyatorli elektr transport vositalari bozorga. Ford intends to invest about $14 billion on fuel-efficient technologies over the next seven years and aims to achieve a 36% improvement in fuel economy for its entire fleet by the 2015 model year. The company has applied to DOE's Ilg'or texnologiya vositalarini ishlab chiqarishga mo'ljallangan kredit dasturi for $5 billion to support these efforts, but the company also sought up to $9 billion in bridge loans. However, Ford expected to remain viable through 2009 and hopes to avoid drawing on the loan.[iqtibos kerak ]

GM unveiled the production version of the Chevy Volt sentyabrda. The vehicle will be able to travel up to 40 miles in all-electric mode. General Motors Corporation (GM) is involved in a well-publicized effort to launch its plug-in hybrid model, the Chevy Volt, in 2010, and the company also intends to employ the Volt drivetrain in other vehicles. GM plans to launch predominately fuel-efficient cars and crossovers over the next four years, investing $2.9 billion in fuel-efficient technologies and alternative fuels during that time period. By 2012, GM will offer 15 hybrid models, and more than half of its fleet will be flex-fuel vehicles, able to run on either gasoline or ethanol-rich E85. GM is seeking $12 billion in bridge loans through 2009 and is also asking for revolving credit of $6 billion that it could draw on if its sales forecast falls short. The company ended the third quarter of the year with cash reserves of $16 billion, but it estimates that it should have at least $11 billion on hand to maintain its operations. Without a federal loan, GM expects its cash reserves to fall to $10.1 billion by year's end and to fall to $3.6 billion by February.[iqtibos kerak ]

"Chrysler" MChJ predicted that for the 2009 model year, 73% of its vehicles will be more fuel efficient than their 2008 models, and the company planned to launch more small, fuel-efficient vehicles in the future. The company's plan also called for the introduction of a Dodge Ram hybrid in 2010, along with the company's first electric-drive vehicle. Chrysler also planned to offer three additional electric-drive vehicles by 2013. And like GM, Chrysler planned to make half of its fleet egiluvchan yoqilg'i capable by 2012. The company sought a bridge loan of $7 billion. Chrysler ended the first half of the year with $9.4 billion in cash, but expected to end the year with only $2.5 billion in cash, and was concerned that it might not make it through the first quarter of 2009 without the loan.[iqtibos kerak ]

Automakers have already submitted applications for more than $20 billion in retooling loans to pay for fuel efficient vehicle projects.[99]

Production capacity: factory closings

On December 12, 2008, General Motors announced that it was temporarily closing 20 factories in North America.[106] On December 17, Chrysler announced it would idle all 30 of its plants for at least one month.[107]

GM will invest $1 billion of bailout money in Brazil

A February 2, 2009 article in the Lotin Amerikasi Herald Tribune said that General Motors would invest $1 billion in Braziliya, and that this money is part of the bailout that it received from the U.S. government.[108]

Brand consolidation

General Motors' plan was to consolidate their portfolio of US brands, concentrating on the Kadillak, Chevrolet, Buik va GMC brands, while phasing out, or possibly selling their Pontiak, Hummer va Saturn brendlar.

On June 2, GM Motors announced the sale of the Hummer markasi off-road transport vositalari ga Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Company Ltd,[109][110][111] a deal that fell through after failing to obtain Chinese regulatory approvals. The last Hummer H3 rolled off the line at Shreveport on May 24, 2010.[112]
