Funny you should mention this, but Merkel and the German govt. were prepared to put up loan guarantees for Magna. In return, the Germans keep their jobs (I do believe that Opel workers will own about 10% of the new operation), and those in the English factories are slated for that long, lonely ride down the tubes. Whether you agree with govt. stepping in to help private industry or not, I think you must agree that Merkel and company won this battle.
