Sorry, my facetiousness-meter must’ve been on the fritz due to the seething anger I’m feeling over my president selling out my children for a bunch of whining car big-wigs and union thugs. You’re right, there’s nothing about a bail-out that fixes the self-inflicted gaping open sores that exist within the US auto manufacturers. Either capitalism and free markets are resilient or not—right now, our government is acting like none of them believe in the free markets anymore.
They have no faith in our ability to create new jobs, new wealth, new industries...which is a sad day. Their gloom and doom responses are disheartening and a little bit frightening. “We’re going to have riots...” Geez...what do they know that they’re not telling us?
No problem.
We appear to be firmly on the same side on this one.
I, for one, am stocking up on non-perishable food and ammunition.
There are only so many “industries” which can be “bailed out” before our entire country collapses.
