It is not a net benefit to the nation to take from people with a median family income of $50.233 and use it to keep people making $74/hr employed, especially when the latter group is “done making concessions”.

I assume you were being sarcastic.

$74/hr is about $148,000 per year (not including overtime.)

That’s what bothers me about the auto bailout, we’re taking from people middle class Americans to give the money to people that make more, have a better job, and have a better life.

It’s Robin Hood in reverse. Taking from the poor to give to the rich.
