I'd normally avoid jumping to conclusions and freaking out, but I'm just going to go ahead and put this out there:
Beginning of the f***ing end.

Meh All in all it could be worse.... we could have more neo cons running things fully into the ground...not the dims get to try and skid things aground.....but the fires are still burning and its going to take years for the smoke to clear so we can see the real damage... so all we can do is take things one at a time.
Focusing on infrastructure and appeasing the vikings in big business so that some movement on the lending front can start up...would be nice if hapuos corpus was reinstated.....and the DMCA neutered... as well... would also be nice if bush.co was impeached but frankly politics being what they are today even Nixon would not have had to resign....

LOL
Frankly the bail out is a sham, give each working US citizen 100-250K and guess what the financial industry would instantly fall over itself to restructure itself to seek out and offer services for that money, becuse money dose most certainly trickle up and outwards.
But no the status quo and the continuation of noble bureaucracy comes first and what comes from that is breaking the old rule of making money from nothing...er...sorry that's what they do....I mean government printing money out of nothing.... because of the system in play you have to let the bullies and robbers in on deals to try and smooth out the lending ciotuation that stops business nation wide from operating at optimal performance...or some jaiv like that.
I can see a reason to bail out the car insutry but only so much..I just hope they wont want to go hybred and battery car nuts..thos things pollute more than low MPG models ever will...we need real 50+ MPG vehicles not hybreds that sht dead batteries.... we need a solid middle step to a workable non fake low gas usage vehicle.....
I could rant more...but its 6AM >< zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Yes, that is true, but they won't get anything. That's not an industry that provides a lot of honest jobs. The car industry, for example, directly affects several million jobs. If the porn industry went under (which it won't), then it wouldn't be anywhere near as devastating. It would probably get replaced by an entrepreneur with a video camera and a website.
Obama hasn't really done anything yet as he is not officially President yet. As far as choosing people to be in his cabinet, everyone that he chooses will have some dirt. This is that lawyer's dirt. It doesn't mean that Obama agrees, unless he starts lobbying for laws against file sharing. If he does, then we should start the bitchin'. Right now it's a little early.

I said that as a joke and yeah its true but wasn't intentially meant for anything.Larry Flynt hates the government so much that he requested a bailout to give a statement.I'm sure we all know it will never happen,but think of it this way bailouts are in effect even when Obama is not in office yet.In my honest opinion nobody deserves bailouts,just because they run big corporations doesn't mean they are entitled to taxpayers money.They invested wrong and should suffer the consequences just like everybody else.Its true the automobile companies would crumble,but who is to blame for that in the first place.Its not rocket science we all want fuel effecient cars and not some gas guzzler.If these companies want to build gas guzzlers let them do it,but don't get me to support them.When I'm forced into something like everybody else I've got a reason to be pissed off.

I believe the financial meltdown happened do to lenders being able to mis lead about loans that become so rancid over time people had to get out of them, this created a profit bubble and a rush to gain profit through loop holes. The system broke down due to the captains of industry letting their lieutenant rape the staff while they robed the ship blind.....

Well yeah I agree,but that doesn't change the fact the automobile companies could have changed the way they manufactured vehicles.I can tell you from experience that Ford,Chevy etc.. build hundreds and hundreds of trucks,suvs etc...My question of concern is do they really need to manufacture all these gas guzzlers.Its a big loss on their part considering how gas price gauging was in effect,but some blame should be directed at them as well.I don't want to see a slap on the hand and then tell them to get back to work.The fake loans granted is another story all together,but seriously what do we gain from this.If a major corporation fails we should hold their hand and guide them out of trouble.The CEOs running these corporations make millions,and should be able to run these corps without any problems.If they can't get the job done then who is to blame for this mess,and do we really have to bail them out if they are tossing money around like its nothing.

That's your own personal opinion & lets not get on this BS subject because some people on this board can't read clearly.He was a Lawyer for the RIAA.He was hired to do job for them this doesn't reflex his views so give the guy a chance before you hang him out to dry.

Sorry they simpley cost to much not only in up front price but all the repairs that have to be done over the years to keep up planed obsolescence so they can push more widgets is fcking breaking them, we need a majority of low cost(5-20K) vehicles that can get 40-80MPG and last 10-20 years, instead of making them to break do what the tech industry dose entice people with new better designed low cost(5-20K) vehicles. The car industry currently is over saturated in not only vehicles but dealers as well its a compeltel mess, sure at one time it could afford to be a cocaine line snorting business.
If you want a larger vehicle be ready to pay 40-70K for it for the multitude of the lower middle class to lower class populace we need cheap and efficient cars and the car industry needs to go into rehab and change its business model.

Well here is another problem most patents created for fuel effeciency vehicles are bought by oil companies.The oil companies want gas guzzlers its pretty much a big chain that screws us.I read an article not that long ago talking about a car created that could run off water.When it was created a patent was as well,and the oil industries bought it for billions to keep themselves in business.Its very possible with the knowledge the automobile industry has they could create fuel effecient vehicles as you mentioned.They also want to keep oil companies in business or the vehicles they produce are worthless and they can't sell them.When you get the chance search on google for hydro powered cars.I could have sworn I seen videos of these engineers building vehicles that don't run off gas,but other fuel sources.I'm more worried about the blue collar workers than the big wigs running the automobile industries.They really are scum man and would fire thousands in a heart beat.
