I can't believe that the federal government allows the 'Big 3' and the UAW to hold us hostage. This is a mockery. It is a scham. It is a mockery of a scham. It is a schamockery. How can they sit in their over-priced chairs and tell us that if they fail, we will all fail. If any other companies conducted business like these people do, they would be on their own and go belly up. I say make them suffer the consequences of greed and bad business. Their ideal of capitolism has been so blurred, all they can see is green. Greenbacks that is, and lots of it.

But how can they sit without those expensive chairs at those mahoghany conference tables built for 20, but now only accompanied by the highest members on the board, barely clinching on by their manicured nails in fear that they won't be able to make the payment on that new yacht they just put a $100,000 down payment on or that Aston-Martin they almost have paid off. The rich would die poor because they don't know any better. Oh no...what will they do? Continue to devise a plan to bail their sorry a**es out is what!

What I can't believe is that the federal government allowed Wall Street to hold us hostage and gave them over $700 BILLION with virtually no strings attached and now the recipients refuse to even account for what they did with the money! It's easier to blame unionized workers for the failure of the Big 3 than to put the blame where it really belongs - poor management and the inability of people to get financing even if they want to buy a new vehicle.
