Consumer Would Still Purchase a Car from a Bankrupt Company

The main argument against bankruptcy for the auto industry has been the notion that consumers wouldn’t buy a car from a bankrupt car company.

Well a new USA Today/Gallup poll proves that notion wrong.

But the USA TODAY/Gallup Poll says otherwise. The survey of 1,008 adults Friday to Sunday found that 82% would at least consider a Detroit-brand vehicle. Of those, 67% would do so even if the company were in bankruptcy court.

So I guess we can throw that argument out the window. So what argument do they have left?
