Much of the existing Chrysler/GM upper management was fired and all of the 
shareholders were wiped out.  I really don't think the Chrysler/GM management 
was motivated by the desire to screw workers -- more that the unionized 
agreements were an impediment to what they really wanted to do -- sell cars at 
a profit.
