Obviously the way that the companies are structured, doing business isn't working. The big Three are big through 2 billion a piece A MONTH. Also did you know that GM is paying more people through pensions than they currently employ? Add in the fact that the Unions won't even negotiate with the Big 3 and we end up where we are right now.

Sorry just because we gave out $700 Billion to companies that shouldn't have got it in the first place doesn't mean we should just continue handing out money because we can.
I believe congress approved 700 billion in bailout, like it or not the money will be spent on compaines. I think that money should have went to buiulding up u.s. infrastructures and also develop our own energy. But b/c that money will not be used I rather that money go to a industry that really needs the help, b/c a lot of people will be affected if they go under. Also more gov't oversight will come with the bailout which will hopefully stop this from happening again
