Ralph and GM goes way back. Both will be never be happy until the other is dead and buried. Unfortunately, if Nader got his wish, millions of Americans would be unemployed. Maybe Ralph is even angling for another big settlemen from GM—he got one exceeding $400K back in the 60s.

It may be unpopular to say here, but Nader’s reforms probably have saved a lot of lives—including his push for automotive safety when no else gave a rat’s ass.

And he’ll always have a soft spot in my hear for helping defeat Gore in ‘00. Without him, the Gorester would probably be preparing for his third term by now and half of America wouldn’t know it—’cause they’d be without electricity.

And The Carbon Offset Market would have been bigger than The NYSE.

Ralphie's "concern" was more in line with making his stock portfolio rise in value. He was invested in Ford while he was attacking GM. As for real improvements in automotive safety, the man you should be looking at is Col. J.P.Stapp (the rocket sled guy.)
