I don't want to see them lose their jobs, but I want REAL CHANGE. I want the management out, and the workers to make what the Foreign companies pay at their plants in the US.

The Senator from Tenn stated that with cutting back exec pay, cutting worker pay and benefits to Toyota levels will yield them $10.5 Billion. That will go a long way...

They all want money but they don't want to change how they work, what they build and how much they make. The Unions are a big part of this, just as much as the bad management.

Tax payers can't pay every failing business out there and the auto makers have had YEARS to get their SH together.

It seems that every 30 years or so auto makers need to beg for money from the government...

I don't like the new ones, but i also own a 1951 Ford Victoria, so value will shoot way up! I hate to see the ones that started the car industry go out like that, but there's a first for everything. Oldsmobile went down already... and that was the end of us...
