Auto Industry: Can We Get a 'Twofer'?

The whole idea of spending (forget loaning this is money gone baby gone) on companies that have not been able to execute a plan that offers cars/trucks that people want to buy at prices people are willing to spend FOR YEARS is simply obscene. As I wrote in my blog these jobs are gone with the way management has run the companies and having the federal government step in will not only cost the taxpayers a lot of money (already has in terms of congressional resources) but will delay the ability of the auto makers to get back on solid ground and start producing a product that people want to buy.

Its too bad congress thinks they know better than the capital markets as they are bringing America to its knees a lot quicker than need be.
