The Big Three are on life support.

• Our government gives $3k subsides to hybrid buyers.
• Hybrid buyers get foreign made Toyotas and Hondas.
• Our tax money is killing the US auto industry.
• Autoworker taxes support their own job destruction.
• Subsidies would be unnecessary if hybrids were so great.
• Now the coup de grâce, increased cafe standards.

Good bye to Detroit's bread and butter. The Government at one time supported big business to the betterment of the Nation but now big business is evil. We are so stupid.

The Big Three are on life support.

If they would produce what we want to buy...they could at least get moved to the 'critical care' room.

GM and Ford now sell hybrid models, however, neither company makes a one that meets the forthcoming standard.
