http://www.democracynow.org - In 2005, General Motors decided not to change a defective ignition switch redesign because it would have added about a dollar to the cost of each car. At least 13 people have died in accidents as a result, though the number could be much higher. Following two days of contentious congressional testimony by GM CEO Mary Barra, we are joined by two guests: Ken Rimer, whose 18-year-old step-daughter Natasha Weigel died in a defective Chevy Cobalt in 2005; and consumer advocate Joan Claybrook, former head of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
