That is our fault though, isn't it? The majority sat back and said, "Please save us from global meltdown!" And when they threw the plan out, it...
The fact is that they didn't make a good set of cars and they do need bailed out. Again, GM could eat $50 BILLION by next Christmas and be no...
\ You make many valid points(and especially the one at the end), but I will address the ones that I think are more on point with the topic....
While I do agree to a point, I think there is far more public outrage about the bonuses that were given with that money than the buying of smaller...
You cut the banks out of the picture and how many companies fail within 6 months? Some companies can't float without almost daily credit. Let's...
I do appreciate your point, but mind you as well the general idea here is that GM took advantage. Other industrials took advantage. (Esp housing)....
I'm suggesting we turn some of them out for good. And I'd rather buy a Tesla Roadster. ;) http://www.teslamotors.com/
I stand behind the bail-out of the banks 100%. What I do not stand behind is the failure to act on what is justifiably labled as fraud. I am...
No sir. Absolutely not. GM has just shy of 15 billion cash reserves. Mind you they burned approx 7 billion last quarter alone. Not to mention...
What you do is allow GM to fail (and again, Ford too if it happens) and you take the money you would've wasted on them to incentivize other,...
The interesting thing about the bank thing though is that beyond the obvious of eliminating competition, our own regulatory system is forcing...
How about using those record profits for something more important than pretending to rescue GM?
That's the other side of the coin. Even if GM is kept up jobs will still be loss. Production will slow, "efficiency cuts" will be made etc. GM...
Me too(I live less than 8 hours from the Motor City), but the fact is that it's going to happen. It's just a matter of timing at this point. It...
It's long overdue. I say we let GM fail and plan for the problems it brings as part of the re-building process. Two scenarios: 1) GM fails...
That is a really dumb statement. Half of RT had never even heard of memes until the Anon invasion. RT is, however, a better place to experiment...
I take it your dad is in the car business? That's going to become a good sector again over the next few years as well. More and more hybrids and...
Obama just has to make one wrong move and you'll have your wish.
Does your dad work at a carbon emissions warehouse or something? :confused: 401(k) plans are still something to ride out over the next 3-4 years....
If Barack does a good job over 4 years he's a shoe in for four more. If he drops the ball we'll likely see Palin V Clinton in 2012.
