How to Save the U.S. Auto Industry



I stumbled across a letter from the December 22nd 2008 issue of Fortune Magazine about one reader's viewpoint which I absolutely love!

"Why don't we take the $25 billion the auto industry wants and give it to Steve Jobs and Tim Cook ("The Genius Behind Steve")? I have to think that with those two in charge, Apple could develop an iCar that Americans would enjoy driving and actually want to buy." - Paul M. Keebler, Fortune, 12/22/2008

A year and a half later, and this still doesn't seem like a bad idea -- considering how everything Apple does turns golden!  There's even a parody website: the iCar - Drive Different!
