Rep. Kucinich On Assisting the US Auto Industry

Today the House is debating HR 7321, the Auto Industry Financing and Restructuring Act to address the American auto industry's request for financial assistance. The legislation provides up to $14 billion in short-term bridge loans and includes accountability measures banning corporate excesses, including no golden parachutes, no bonuses for the 25 most highly paid employees at each company, and no corporate airplanes, with requirements to sell or end leases on any existing aircraft.

Kucinich is a Commie idiot.

We have retreated to the WTO. If the WTO wants to close production in America they will close production in America. Why are trying to fight them and not fighting to win. Every single manufacturing job needs to be brought back. The tax structure is wrong when 75% of corporations pay no tax. Eighty five per cent of revenue comes off the workers in retirement and income tax.

"Fuck the poor let them die. Why should one group of amercians help another group of amercians. I say let the fuckers die. Hoover was right in a recession just let the poor die . Put them in camps and let them fry. Yessss. What makes america great is saying fuck other amercians let them all die. "

So, Dennis, what happens to the people that you steal $15 BILLION from??

What happens to the people whose dollar you devalue when the Fed prints up this $15 BILLION??!

Just to be clear, I was being facetious about the UFO. (I seethed when Russert pulled that crap during the presidential debates.) Per 431 like Kucinich, I'm suggesting the other Congressional representatives get a grip and realize these industries are, indeed, vital to our nation's well-being.

Not sure what you're saying, but if I catch the gist of it: fuck the fuck off.

[daderone]

its called having a spine, brain and heart..very human.

[MrTGolden]

The auto industry ... the steel industry ... the aerospace industry ... are are are ... vital to national security? Who are you?! What UFO kidnapped you, where did they take you, and how did they brainwash you not to walk lock-step with Wall Street? Any possibility they could clone another 431 of you? LOL.
