Editorial : Auto Bailout

What a concept? I am a bit conflicted on this subject, while you want to support the Unions and American workers. You also remember that there was no one to bailout the Steel industry. They just let it die. There wouldn't even be a need for this site had someone stepped up to support American manufacturing 30 years ago.

However, I do sympathise with the reasoning and desire to not let yet another industry be destroyed. When you break it down to its common denominator "people with families" you realize that it may be necessary regardless of how seemingly anti free market it may seem. Detroit has a mill-hunky culture of its own.

Absolutely! I'm in agreement with your sentiments too. As stupid as this may sound, 20% of our economy is dependant on the auto industry in one way or another. We have already exported most of our basic industries, including big steel, and have become almost (but not quite) a service economy. When management is making all the wrong moves, who suffers the most? Right, the workers. These guys are like the gang who couldn't shoot straight, then when things go south, they give themselves fantastic seperation packages (read: 'golden parachutes') Who is left then? The workers, who will then have to wind back hard won consessions, to the point of dipping towards poverty levels, just to help bail out these idiots. I'm sick and tired of these featherheads on the sidelines, who have never done an honest days work in there lives, complain about how much money other people are making, like it's their god-given right! I'm so angry I could spit!
