How many bailouts should taxpayers provide? I suggest that ZERO is the proper answer. Otherwise, taxpayers should rescue ALL companies, even when their demise comes because of their own poor decisions.

And yes, I understand that we are losing US industries - it concerns me too.

I'm not suggesting another bailout. I'm not suggesting anything more than being willing to consider buying a GM again.

Companies that rely on subsidies should go out of business. Not doing so makes them inefficient, and more apt to make a political contribution than an investment in its own core business.
