Should GM Be Saved?

Why is it that the gooberment doesn't simply contract $25-$XXX billion dollars worth of vehicles (police cars, ambulances, school busses, army vehicles) to be built new over the next X years. I mean a national upgrade of our service vehicle fleet. This will both keep a lot of US auto workers employed, and give taxpayers value for their investment. And ease burden on state budgets who pay for much of this now.

Or even more radically, contract the auto giants to produce an efficient car for every American family over the next 5 years. How's that for a tax credit.

Answers are there, if they look - instead of just writing blank checks. IMHO
