With the economy being the way that it is, what does everyone think about Congress bailing out the auto industry? Aint trying to start a political thread here, just curious what everyone thinks.
Me?In a real mix up on this one.Bail em out, maybe save a whole industry and a whole lot of jobs along with it.Dont bail em out, teach big corporation something about responsilblity.
Dunno myself. glad I dont have to make that decision.
Easy.No amount of your money will be able to bail them out.CAFE standards, over-generous pensions, sky-rocketing medical costs have doomed the Big Three.That $25 billion would disappear in no time flat, without tangible results.They need to go through bankruptcy to shed some of these obligations and then congress needs to let them build the cars that people want, not that the Greenies want them to build.Foreign car companies building their cars here are doing it profitably, so at least there is a model for the Three to follow.
