Should we force GM to get rid of UAW like they are getting rid of Rick Wagoner before getting more money?

Why would GM or Chrysler want to have less dealers to sell their product? GM & Chrysler are in bankruptcy because they can't sell enough cars to make a profit. GM & Chrysler does not sell us their cars. The independent dealer sells their product. These dealers are the automakers ONLY customer; without them they cannot sell cars.

Add in the lost parts sales and warranty service the dealer provides and closing dealers makes as much sense as closing grocery stores to help improve Kraft Food's bottom line.
