Isi artikel
Here's George McGregor, autoworker. He's 63 years old, a gregarious, barrel-chested graybeard with a gold stud in his ear and a gold cross around his neck. This is his story. It's a particular story, all his own. It's also an American story, specifically, a Detroit story, about a time that has passed and a city that will never be the same. And it's a story about a factory -- GM's Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant -- one of only two factories still making cars in the city where carmaking was born. GM first pitched the idea for a new Cadillac assembly plant on land straddling the line between Detroit and the municipality of Hamtramck almost 30 years ago, during a time of crisis in the auto industry. American carmakers, under attack from Japanese imports, needed to cut costs, and GM believed that a new factory with robots and other cutting-edge technology was just the answer.
