Opposition Arguments
Most people are in favor of the auto safety bill that is coming into play but the car companies are very skeptic about it. Although they don't publish their ideas, they don't like the idea because it will cost them more to build a car. Also they are removing the cap from the maximum fine of $16.4 million which companies are worried could cause them to go bankrupt. If they did argue about it, the argument they would probably use is that it would make cars more expensive for the consumer. They would show how much more you would have to pay for a car to make up for the new safety requirements and new taxes being imposed on car companies. Persuasion by greed would be their method and the consumer would be their target.

It seems to me that society to often tries to force manufacturers to be responisible for thier clients. There are accidents in this world where no one is at fault, yet manufacturers are often placed in the position of responsibility for these accidents. Often this is because they are seen as being able to "afford" to pay for the victim's losses, even though those costs are just forwarded on to future customers.
