Would it have been better for the US in WWII if Ford and GM had been taxed more heavily previously, with the money was spent on saving some less efficient carmakers? There were hundreds of carmakers in the 20's and 30's.
The most efficient vehicle making plants in the US today belong to Ford, Toyota, Honda and Nissan. These are the plants that will be making the plants for the US military. The GM plants abroad, which account for the vast majority of the most advanced and most productive GM plants, will be making vehicles for the countries where the plants are located in times of war.
The saving grace is that the next war will not be decided by mass production plants, just like WWI and WWII were not decided by horse breeders and wagon makers, even though horses and wagons had been critical to war effort a century before that during the Napoleonic Wars.
