Auto Execs Again Ask Congress for Money

[BansheeBLN]

the whole world builds cars with small effetive engines...and they look nice. but what do you have in the us? big ugly monsters that no one will buy! few exceptions but overall american cars are really bad made and just to ugly to be sold anywhere else. and now hate me 'cuz i am from germany :P

[emforty2]

original bailout money gone now asking for more

how much do these clowns get paid every year $16M salaries?

in a capitalist business world there are winners and LOSERS

and I think you know where you stand !

[Signal337]

Consumers don't have the money to buy these cars. "The Average Joe" can't afford the luxuries. The Big CEO's of these car makers have all the "lap of luxury". Giving themselves huge raises, "Chrysler", "FORD", and "GENERAL MOTORS" BEO's leave the Bankrupt companies in a "Golden Parachute". They never have the money to hire more people to work. Now so many people are "Out of work".

The total (inflated) value of GM stock is 3 billion

And they want the US Taxpayer to give them 18 billion!

How would it fix anything? Isnt this a 3 decade old problem that cant be fixed by throwing money at it?

Americans are a stupid socialist country for corporations

[opAir01]

let them implement their plans first see if they are as good as they claim it to be.

after they implemented their plans no bailouts are needed, prolly.

hate it when they talk like they are such a good ceos ... unfortunately they are not else they wouldnt be in trouble in the first place

[ZoomBFX]

Is unconstitutional to bailout companies BTW

[marniespeaks]

bull shit!

fire these guys and give the company to the workers or let them fail like every other American who makes bad decisions

[zuluamuse]

Hey! These guys served as a pipeline to the big oil companies with their big gas guzzling vehicles. With billions in racketeering profits from big oil they should ask big oil to bail them out.

[BrettAllenNJ]

these companies have stood in the way of progress for far to long

[sickfixxreturns]

Is there anything left in the world that isn't bullshit?

[OlGreyWolf58]

file chapter 11 and throw out the union

[DonkeyFist]

Our country is so fucked for the next 100 years...

[tecpaocelotl]

I feel like laughing from what they're saying and jump off my seat and say bull shit.

[fackelman1]

If they don't allow the LOANS (not a give away) the dominoes will start falling and won't stop with out taking out "Average Joe American." It will be the second biggest mistake this country has done and allowed in the last 20 years. Iraq being the first. Its ripple effect will be felt for a very very long time. With that being said, I've said my peace and now those that can't wait for this country to fail and be taken over by non American Industralist, you may speak. But be forwarned.

[abarzilai664]

90% say no, but Washington will say yes possibly after Jan 20.

[nomoreserve]

The powers that be blamed and kicked out Sub Prime Mortgages which was a mistake they will never admit. Now they wish they could give away cars and houses to people at whatever interest rate. America has been living off of credit for decades and then they take it away. In another year or so from getting our butts kicked over credit who will want a car for $50,000 at whatever interest rate? Loan Should be Denied!

"After FDR sought the secrets of the Grail in 1934, letters that I uncovered, indicated they were going to return these secrets to Nashville, TN"

No bailouts for wealthy executives. This is not a Socialist country.

[Zeldovich]

Thank you for coming here today gentlemen. The answer is "no."  Have safe flights back.

[karinablack]

*choke*

Did he just say "innovation" with a straight face??

[sickfixxreturns]

Personally, I'm done caring. Deny them the bailout, let their companies go under. Everything is fucked either way.
