Which do you think should have happened? Let them go down the tubes--for which there's an argument, but at the cost of one hell of a ripple effect, from jobs to capacity? Or have Obama wave his voodoo-dick and make the world go away, back to the way things were before we invented ships and caravans?

Or perhaps face reality, that the automobile market is flooded, with more cars than drivers (literally)?

I support economy that follows the common sense:  no bailouts is the way to go. We have two choices: taking the pain now or keeping everything inflated for much more pain in the future. Fear-mongering is a part of the bailout process. So, consider all these ripple effects and job losses overblown. Actually, "restructuring" the production to overseas has similar effect. The corruption behind all these bailouts is really disturbing. Huge sums of money are just stolen and wealth transferred to the selected group.

GM now has more workers working outside the US than inside. Why did not China and European countries bail it out? GM increasingly turns its US factories into into car assembly plants instead of manufacturing. Besides, they pay no US taxes. [ http://www.stockmarketdigital.com/sectors/nasdaq-usa/gm-can-avoid-federal-taxes-50-billion-profits ]. So, what are we actually looking at?  Is it a merger of big business and the government (commonly known as fascism) against people? GM passed 802,000 for presidential campaign in 2008 (52% Democrat). Not surprisingly Obama is a co-conspirator in destroying US economy.
