Yes and I did not want the bailout, they should have failed, like many of the smaller business that were owed by GM, my taxes to prop up Detroit is not a good idea in my book, oh unions got the sweet deal here

ok. I'll put you down for "wants Obama to fail at any cost to our country, even if it means we join the Third World as the greatest depression the world has ever known washes over us like a poisonous tsunami"

No I want America to be on top, following the Euro model will not work, tax and spend, soon my money will run out and then where are we, the printing press is working at the moment, as long as we kiss China's ass, if they stop buying our bonds we will see a depression our country has never seen, trillion dollar deficts will be hard to over come, not enough rich and middle income Americans to fund all this spending

China's economy depends mightily on us & it would be crazy to do something so reckless. they know which side of the won ton the butter is on. saying "we should have just let GM fail" is reckless too. over 3 million people are directly dependent on GM as vendors & sub contractors. our economy couldn't stand the hit of those people all on the street at once. since when does middle class America make over $200,000/yr?

I'm saying "we as taxpayers" made GM a loan & restructured their failed management. if you'll recall, we did nearly the exact same thing with Chrysler when Iacoca was at the helm & it was very successful.we were paid back in full. it's getting pretty obvious that this thing worked, despite all the wailing & gnashing of teeth the "nationalism" fear mongers & union haters espouse .
