It’s going to be interesting to see how Obama finds a way to keep the UAW eating out of his hand while saving GM at the same time. It’s a tough challenge, even for a Messiah. But if he can walk on water, he can find a way.
President zero and his fascist horde will allow GM to declare bankruptcy. Then they’ll allow GM to drop all retirement packages. The news media will show dozens and dozens of old folk complaining about losing their income and medical coverage. zero will hold town meeting after town meeting and will decry that this injustice can not stand. Then there will be another trillion dollar bill which will nationalize the GM retirees’ benefits. GM retirees will scream, “We’ve been saved!” GM will survive. Fascism will continue. And Americans will be screwed.
Did I mention that friends of zero will make millions by representing all of those involved? You know from lobbying, lawsuits, commissions, kickbacks, and payoffs.
For in the long run, President zero has two goals; destroy what is good about America and enrich all friends of zero (and also zero.)
