Discussion:
Discuss the following: Some argue that certain businesses may compromise the level of quality of service to stay within budget and to meet company's performance standards. In that regard, General Motors (GM), and other automobile manufacturers, have been investigated by U.S. Congressional committees regarding defects possibly produced by quality cutbacks in their manufacturing methods and commitment to safety. These cutbacks have led to deaths and product recalls. Argue for or against the idea of meeting financial goals even at the risk of minor reductions in service or safety by the auto industry.
