General Motors and Toyota joint ventured to establish NUMMI in 1984. This week the last of 7.7 million vehicles will leave the assembly line and the plant will close. As this article points out NUMMI was an American success story. Its demise has more to do with it being 25 years old than GM and its unions.

Only the political crazies still complain about saving our domestic auto companies being a bad idea. GM is creating jobs again, and that is indisputably a good thing.
