I doubt they're doing 123 percent loans anymore, but I think about GM going down when some of their ancilliaries caused the problems we have to begin with and wonder maybe they should have gone down and taken wall st. with them, even if the old folk's diversified 401K's went with them.
11 trillion dollars, if you had a choice to cover one or the other (autos banks and insurance, or cover 401K's losses) to me that's the question but it appears to me as if Obama's trying to do both and neither has worked all being wasted.Comment

That's a fair question, and I'm not honestly sure how I'd answer it. Obviously you have physical differences between air travel and a rail system or even interstate highways. Airports are under the jurisdiction of local governments, (and to some extent, the federal government) and you don't have roads or rails in between to maintain, just open sky.
I definitely would not want to see Boeing go the way of Chrysler or GM though. They may have moved their corporate offices, but they're still a huge company in this state, and if they went out of business, the impact on Washington would be comparable to how GM and Chrysler's non-existence would impact Michigan.Eat Us And Smile

They have the license to build civilian vehicles only, dumbass. And even the GM Hummers were really nothing like the military version anyway. They were built on a regular GMC truck chassis and basically cheap plastic crap otherwise.Eat Us And Smile

Tell that to the Chinese, this is just the beginning of another international incedent not forseen by the Democrats who bought GM to give it away to the Chinks anyways.
The end result tells you all one needs to know about it! It's just the foot in the door for them to sue for further military hardware design contracts and anything else GM had to do with the gummint.Comment
