 [He points to booming auto sales as proof that consumers are still buying gas guzzlers even in the face of soaring prices.] They complain about the cost of gasoline, but when GM, Ford and Chrysler had their employee-discount programs, guess what they bought? ... You're watching this and scratching your head.

 A former Ford exec going to GM, this is a first, ... GM just doesn't hire Ford execs. But GM under Wagoner is doing things differently. They turned to a Chrysler veteran for the head of public relations. Now this. That says something about a change at GM.

 There was payback from the employee-discount programs at the U.S. Big Three, and a little bit of truck punishment.

 The 8.5 percentage-point gap in cost increases between a best-performing and a poor-performing company is very significant. Through focused initiatives such as building data warehouses and using hard-dollar ROI calculations, best-performing companies lower cost trends, minimize employee absence and earn higher rates of employee satisfaction with their programs.

 If I were a Republican, I would be scratching my head and saying I had just voted for a bill that would ultimately cost far more than the war.

 (GM and Ford) have now sucked up all of the available customers through year-end with their employee pricing scheme. And with gasoline, even though it has come down from its highs, at current prices people are sufficiently concerned about heating their homes and putting gas in their car that they're going to buy more sensibly, and they're not going to buy big sport utility vehicles.

 [Bell got his feet wet in online marketing as director of retail marketing and e-business at Ford Motor Co.] My first job was to clean up the mess from the various Internet acquisitions made at Ford, ... The real gem was forddirect.com, which we were able to establish technically, and also gain the support of the dealer network via ownership and usage. In many ways, the things I learned at Ford about how they structured the Web influenced my later decisions at Daimler-Chrysler.

 If you start looking at this world economy and see what's happening with Ford, GM and Chrysler, it becomes obvious. Japan has national health-care (for its work force). We don't in this country. This makes me sound like a Democrat, which I'm not, but we need that in this country if we're going to compete. Our (auto) manufacturers have a huge cost because of that.

 I do believe other businesses will follow. These types of programs mean less out-of-pocket cost for the employee and health-plan savings for the employer.

 I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was bought and sold a long time ago. The shit they shovel around every 4 years *pfff* doesn't mean a fucking thing. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around – they say, 'If you don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with.

 [Craig McDonald of Dallas, who also bought a Vespa from University Scooters in August, said it lets him escape the cost of fueling his LandRover SUV that gets just 15 miles per gallon.] I drive it to and from work and then any errands that we have to run, ... It's so nice not to have to fire up the SUV that just drinks the gasoline.
