THATS GMC, CHRYSLER MIGHT BE BOUGHT BY FIAT AND FORDS DONT NEED IT. AS FOR THE 3 COMPANIES WE BAILED OUT, IF OBAMY WANTS TO BUY THE FORECLOSED HOMES, INSTEAD OF SPENDING MORE MONEY, JUST SUBTRACT THE FORECLOSED HOMES FOR AMERICANS FROM THE DEBT FROM THE BAILOUT MONEY. YOU MAY WANT TO CHECK A NEW LAW REGISTERED FEBRUARY 4, 2009. IT MAY WAKE YOU RIGHT UP. HAVE A NICE DAY.

They have mismanaged money and let the unions screw them over long enough. Let those idiots making 60 bucks an hour go broke and stop paying high school drop outs to put a bolt here or there. They pay the union's retired work force as much or more then workers on the line. Let em go broke and break up the unions which are the greedy bastards that won't budge. Survival of the fittest... let em go broke and see who rebuild a car company that can make money vs producing pc of s@#t vehicles that cost $40k. Giving them more cash is just feeding the same idiots that are going broke over and over. If 300,000 workers lose their jobs so be it, use the billions to help pay to get them an education to do a "skilled" job, the economy will recover and skilled workers will be needed. If they don't want to help themselves we shouldn't have to bail em out. Unions have long been in power for waaaay to long. Let GM go broke and the UAW will break up, people will see that you really shouldn't get paid 60 or 70 bucks an hour to sit on your ass all day while 3 other people do the same job. Then when you retire your pension shouldn't be 95% of the pay you had when you were sitting on your ass pretending to be working. I'm sorry if your one of those union workers being over paid and watching your pension about to vanish, but guess what.... if your so damn skilled/smart etc... getting another job being paid that kind of money should be easy right?? oh wait.. that type of hourly pay doesn't work... in ANY OTHER INDUSTRY. Now your seeing the truth. The corrupt unions killed the automakers not the economy. Selling 20,000 vehicles for 45,000... because they have to overpay union wages. Let em burn...
