I still say NO! to a US Auto Industry - US Taxpayer bailout for the same reasons I cited pages ago:

  • The auto industry fought "cafe standards" in court (raising the fuel mileage of vehicles)
  • The auto industry fought California's tougher emmission standards in court


If the auto industry can afford expensive lawyers and lobbyists to fight improvements to air quality, etc, then they can afford to bail themselves out of their own doing.

I don't support bailing out poor choices in life.

...and I certainly don't support "golden parachuettes"!!

Contrarian, extraordinaire
