Texas Governor: 5k Credit for Plug-In Hybrids to Mollify 'Overzealous' EPA [View article]
another case of strong arming by our government. I'd tell them to stick it. How many Americans will pay $40,000 for a plug in car? Give me a $35,000 credit, and I'll consider it.
Thank you. The exact thoughts of the American people, except for the few that are still in awe of Obama. What a joke this whole Dem. run government is. Where did all these politicians come from, and where were they hiding all this time. They are like a deadly virus that breaks out without warning, and no one knows where it came from, or how it started. Remember them, and vote them out as soon as you can.
I have decided that I will not buy anything from any company that take Fed money, or use any bank that takes Fed money, or have anything to do with any company, or institution that mentions anything about green, eco, global warming, climate change in their ad's. I'm tired of all this CRAP, and don't believe a word they say about anything while they walk all over the common man, that by the way pays for everything. We do all the labor, we make all the pruduce, and we get our wages slashed, and taxed into poverty. I don't care what a CEO makes, or what screw ball idea big Gov comes up with, as long as it take no more away from my living. Very soon, if things don't change there will be no middle class, just the poor, and the rich, which is what I think the Gov wants.
the bark, You must be a Dem. They alway's attack on a personal level, because they have no real facts to argue with. I have been kicked out of 5 Dem, Lib blog sites, and wear that as a medal. Every one I have been kicked out of was full of prissy little babies just like you. I could write all kinds of facts, and warned of what Obama would do if elected, and got attacked for such meaningless things such as grammer, or a (missspelled) word(OMG) another mistake. I hated English in school, thus, didn't try, alas, poor me, but I don't think the IRS, or my bank cares if I spell (doller)OMG, right or not, because I am good at math, which is more than Obama's people can say. (Dumass) OMG.
Think! Is spot on. How will you recruit, manage and motivate talent? "Be glad that you have a job" is a very-short term motivator. If there is no upside offered, there will be a brain drain from the industry. The Dem's, and Obama want to get their fingers into everything, and they will stop all motvation, and there will be no incentive, just the way they like it.
Ford's the Strongest of the U.S. Automakers: So What? [View article]
Everyone is out to make an example of Ford. How dare they shrug off the Bail out funds, and thumb their nose at Nancy, and Harry, and Biden, and the great one himself. As a result, today we see all the articles of doom, and gloom for Fords future, and see their rating cut by Barclays. This is only the begining. They will be CRUSHED, and forced into submission, and into taking the Dem's bail out money. Why the impudence. We the people are rooting for you Ford.

How the Government Should Manage GM and Chrysler. How about they don't. They can't manage themselves, and will only screw up the auto industry more. Why should the government be in charge of any private industry. This is the same thing that go's on in China. The government is partner with any major business.

Bailout Watch: Heading for a Populist Backlash? [View article]
I can sum this post up easily. Americans are PISSED, and fed up with all this phony bail out crap. As for a car czar being appointed, well that will be the begining of the end of the big three for sure. communism doesn't work, leave the free market alone. The only people to come out on top from this are Nancy, Gore, Reide, Dodd, and all the other names of these so called experts we have heard in the past few months. They all have investment interest in these projects, or will be filling their pockets during the long term plan they have. Us, we will get the bill., oh, and shitty little cars to drive at double the price. Also, for you Reagan bashers, you just don't get it. He believed in less goverment. I am a UAW member, and I think we have one of the weakest locals in the UAW. I make more than I did before the union came in which is good, but I also think because our union is as weak as it is, and we don't get large increases, or retirement, etc. that may also be why we are still in business, and doing very well right now. If we made $50 plus an hour, we would not be in business today, so maybe being weak has kept us working. I make about $19 an hour, and I can tell you that anyone in our plant would make cars for the same thing we are making right now. Whats the difference, a car, motor, trailer, etc. its all the same in a factory.
But we will pay for it. The gov. spends like a teenager that gets their money from their parents, and knows nothing about the value of earning that dollar because they think there is an endless supply, our tax's.
How much more for your new eco version SUV? Does it get that much better MPG that you will recoop the higher price you pay over the price of a regular SUV? By that time you will have traded it in, and will be paying $5 to $10 grand more for your next one. Most Americans don't want small cars until there is a gas crisis, like in the 70's. When it was over, out came the demand for big, fast cars again, why, because thats what we really want. What happens if gas stays affordable? Will the little eco cars sell, or will there be lots full of them as they are full of trucks, and SUV's now. Remember the Vega, Pinto, Escort, Yugo, Gremlin, Spirit, Granada? Junk, all gone. If Congress gets their fingers in the Auto industry they will choke it, wring it, and eco it to death with regulation after regulation, and force them to build cars that they will try to force us to buy, and drive, but will we? If you take their money, you are at their mercy.
