Anybody else think this government bailout thing is all a big waste of time? Think about this for a second. The goverment wants to give money that they don’t have to save corporations that don’t know how to run a business. Let’s put this in perspective, say you’ve got a kid who keeps getting into trouble. Do you go down to jail to bail him out every time or do you let him stew behind bars so he can learn his damned lesson? These corporate CEOs are still making multi-million dollar bonuses even though thier company is going bankrupt. And what about these car companies who can’t get it into their heads that people don’t want to buy gas guzzling trucks and SUVs anymore. Sure gas prices are coming down now, but everybody knows they’ll be going back up. And the CEOs show up in Washington to ask for money when they flew there in their private jets? Screw that. They should have driven down there in the cars they make to show the people that they’re dependable and can make such treks. It gets to me is all, gotta vent sometimes.

actually a corporate bailout for the big 3 would be bad. those unions are ruining crap. if they bailout unuons stay. if they chapter 11, unions can kick rocks and they can restructure. gone are the days of the union. unions stood up for the people but if there are no jobs.. then it only hurts.
I agree, the union was the downfall of these companies. The unions were brought in back in the 40s or 50s to combat horrible work environments, and they worked. But fast forward 60 years and the concept no longer applies. Companies don’t work you down to the bone like they used to. There are business ethics that all companies should adhere to if they want to be successful and keep employees happy and working for them.
