Should I buy an inferior/defective good that costs more than the higher quality competition in order to “preserve American industry”? It’s a simple question. You have yet to answer it.

I boycott union made products when possible. Even if a product was not union made, it would be difficult to avoid buying an inferior product just because it was American made. If the products were comparable, I would buy the non union American made product.

Where does this nonsense end? If $25B is not enough, will Congress grant them additional loans? Will Congress take direct control of the auto industry? What other industries will ask for a bailout?

I expect that they'll be changing the GM logo to this if the government takes it over. (If you're a business professor, you might recognize this.)

I expect much the same results as with the original holder of that logo...
