Not to start another flame war, but I have to say I'm curious where this
viewpoint is coming from -- clearly, all manufacturers who sold cars in the
US, not just the Detroit-based ones, were subject to the same government
regulations. So how did this kill the "American car market", which seems to
have survived to the present day? More different companies build cars in the
US today than did in the "unregulated" 1960s.
