High court won't block Chrysler sale
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court has cleared the way for Chrysler's sale to Fiat, turning down a last-ditch bid by opponents of the deal.
The court said late Tuesday it had rejected a plea to block the sale of most of Chrysler's assets to the Italian automaker. Chrysler, Fiat and the Obama administration had warned that the high court's intervention could have scuttled the sale.
A federal appeals court in New York had earlier approved the sale, but gave opponents until Monday afternoon to try to get the Supreme Court to intervene.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ordered a temporary delay just before a 4 p.m. deadline on Monday.

The Supremes have me puzzled and not in a positive tone.

Dems don’t need no stinkin’ rule of law - they ARE THE LAW. They have more in common with South American Banana Republic Dictators than with the wonderful people who have loved and protected this country. Eff ‘em.

I can’t recall the exact words but another FReeper posted that the wrong issues were pursued, or something along those lines. In any case the poster didn’t elaborate.

A large part of why speculators are able to do this is the belief that the weakening dollar will have an ever greater effect in the future. I agree it's the speculators to a large extent, but the weak dollar and the likelihood of inflation is driving their behavior. Am I wrong in this? Seriously, I am not an economic person, just a dabbler and I learn by making statements then waiting to see who tries to blow me out of the water? Thanks!
