Reuther was head of the UAW for many years beginning in the late 30's. As I had mentioned above, and am looking for the sources, Reuther was supposedly one of the very few people who understood how to run the auto industry.

I think he would have closed plants and increased efficiencies if it would have strengthened/benefited the auto industry. I will also look for some things I have put away regarding the lack of long term success/productivity/health of institutions and the conservatism of their board of directors.
