As GM Goes, So Goes the Nation (Part 2)

The big thing here is the health care stuff......what is the US going to do as a nation? The costs are crippling US industry and damaging the US economy. If we continue to lose manufacturing, we will all be working to support the sale of Chinese goods in Wal-Mart and dollar stores...

We need to fix the fundamentals of the business climate in the US which will fix the auto industry and provide fertile ground for manufacturing and industrial growth.

The Bailouts Are Doomed - All of Them

Although they might take exception to my comments, it is obvious that our elected representatives are more interested in being elected representatives more than anything else. They are certainly not fiscally responsible to the US taxpayer.

There are too many lobbyists and too many are afraid to stand up and make the right decision for the country if it impacts their chances of re-election negatively.

There are too many ammendments to bills which cater to particular members of the senate and congress in order to get their support.
These are the tax loopholes that Obama promised to eliminate in order to put the government on a sounder fiscal setting and to fund tax cuts and other incentives.

Time for a fundamental change.....how do we do this?
