Some in GOP Decry Auto Bailout

[rondaddy08]

What I can't understand is why most military and DOD folks vote Republican and are against unions and are against the Big Three getting loans! The military and all of it's associated DOD civilian sector jobs are one of the biggest "unions" there are!!! Think about it! Free health care...real retirement plans...plenty of red tape...terrible efficiency...can't move up until you've spent time in rate/rank..the same things they bitch about unions trying to get is the same things they practice!

These people are the same type of person that would buy blood diamonds like in the true story movie,Blood diamonds. Next thing they will want to outsourse our military for cheaper soldiers. People like them are the ones against farm aid of the past. They must also love foreign oil because it's cheaper, plus thinks its better to have foreiners working our oil rigs.Dont believe in fair trade as long as she or he can save buck, sell outs. Race to the bottom fools. Dont trust them.

Fuck the US autoworkers and their union!!! Bunch of overpaid assholes with a sense of entitlement making $30+/hr. Fucking bullshit! GEt competitive or get out. Look at the JAp cars Toyota.

The big three are the reason we are going down with depression. Not the Senate or Congress, but the big 3. Our gov. is in bad debt, we are screwed.

[ComradeWesley]

I say just give the auto companies to WL Ross,who is a billionaire.This guy can fix anything,or let them go under,so we can go socialist.

Funny the republicans spend a trillion on the rebuilding of Iraq and then give their rich buddies on wall street 700 billion with no strings attached. Then republicans have the gall to say they are unwilling to spend 15 billion to keep over 1 million american jobs.

[Dealz1988]

You got a good point, But how is Ford in trouble I see Mustangs everywhere I go lol

[spock8585]

Thank you and I am glad they are attaching strings to this bail out. I could care less about this except we are looking at over a million more job loses on top of a failing economy,and for once the American workers need to come first.

[Alderon714]

Ford is not participating in the Bush II bail-out.

[CuredOfApathy]

Much like the movie, Trainspotting, the next 'fix' is going to kill the patient.  It is a shame the tainted syringe is shared with the rest of the world.

[SYNPlaymaker88]

last year toyota sold 9 million cars at a huge profit... GM sold 9 million cars at a huge loss. All the cars were made in America.

The only difference? GMs cars were made in the worst run state in the union, Michigan and were built by employees making more than twice what they should who are more worried about their Viagra prescription than their work. Toyota's cars were made in the South, with fair non-union labor, until the big three fixes where they work and who they work with let them rot.

i agree.. we are headed for an economic depression. i was talking to my friend about this and she mentioned the same thing somewhere said.. she said why not foreign companies take the places of american car and hire those employees.

[spock8585]

Republicans give 700 billion to their rich wall street friends but do not want to give 15 billion to help the American workers keep their jobs.

[PoopyOnMyEasyChair]

No it's called the Democrats trying to pay back the union members for their votes.Nothing is going to save the big 3 U S auto makers.They keep asking for handouts every year.

[DevBlazed]

THESE are real republicans. Not bush, not mccain.

God damn the ignorant.

[TruthandJustice101]

WE ARE HEADED FOR AN ECONOMIC DEPRESSION.

Nothing can save us anymore.

[helio2]

Why dont they just let Toyota and the other Jap companies fill in the gaps when the American auto makers go out of bussines? The employess can just go work for the competitors, and make cars people want. This is Bullshit. The American goverment has failed the people again. If anything they should have just Invested in Tesla Motors. Fuck this shit.

[ChicagoJoe57]

What an idiot? Amtrak is the best buy for the money in the United States. SO much for mass transit - I am sure glad Obama won.

Current Nat Debt- $8,400,000,000,000

Distance to Pluto in miles- 3,647,240,000

THINK ABOUT IT!!!!

[daimi11]

Riddle me this ya'll

if the Fed really gave a rats ass about the environment why are they bailing out the same people who are using pollutants as fuel? They should be subsidizing green cars?

And if they keep rewarding bad budgeting then no one will learn how to have a free market.

They just want control, and who you owe money to controls you.

When you are in debt to another, you enter into a slave/master relationship with your creditor. (Proverbs 22:7)

it has to fall to be rebuilt!

Does the government know anything about the government industry?

To hell with these car companies!

[GuyInvincible111]

"Does the government know anything about the car industry?"

Do the car companies know anything about the car industry?

[TECHKLEC]

Apparantly, the government doesn't know anything about the banking industry just as the banks don't know anything about the banking industry. At least all the CEOs of both banking and auto industries are getting big bucks bonusus from money pulled out of our pockets.

[abarzilai664]

The Bailout is more like a band-aid than a cure-all.
