The Demise of the U.S. Automobile Industry December 14, 2008, Detroit, Michigan, USA: As the heads of Detroit's automakers plea their cases to Congress for immediate aid, with GM seeking $12 billion in loans and a $6-billion line of credit, Chrysler asking for $7 billion in loans and Ford Motor Co. pursuing a $9-billion line of credit, the big three continue to struggle and might become a casualty of the severe economic crisis. Detroit's automakers employ nearly a quarter-million workers, and more than 730,000 others produce materials and parts for cars. If just one of the automakers should declare bankruptcy, some estimates put U.S. job losses next year as high as 2.5 million.///A view of downtown Detroit, photographed from the 14th floor of the abandoned central train station.
