If your car company has a crisis every 10 years, you’re doing something wrong. Maybe they should switch to refrigerators or something.

Or better yet: be forced into Bankruptcy Re-Organization as they SHOULD HAVE BEEN back in 2009! The reason GM is failing *again* is because us taxpayers were forced to bail them out and GM learned nothing because of it.

Bingo. Let “Creative Destruction” work and messes like this are avoided. Messes always get 100X worse when the government steps in and attempts to fix something. “Something” is often a mess the government created in the first place.

There’s nothing like the brutality of a free, unfettered market to reward the successful and punish the failures. It is by far the best mechanism ever created to allocate scarce resources, something the government can never do.
