    I say let em fall. I don't know if it's the same in all dealerships but when I worked at a dealership this summer(who shall remain nameless). The shit that was pulled was ridiculous. Lying on loan applications. Giving people who have a $1200, house payment and bad credit a $14K car at $500/month. The shit was stupid. We were putting people in cars knowing damn well they would never be able to afford that shit. IMHO the auto industry brought this shit on themselves. At the same time though I don't feel bad for these idiots who bought these cars knowing that they couldn't afford them who are now crying that their shit is getting repo'd

    The bailout was reatarded. What Fannie May, Freddie Mac, and all the rest of these stupid lending companies are doing now by renegotiating all these bad loans is absolutely stupid. The way we start over and move forward as a country is to let the market run its course and start over

    I'm so fucking glad that I don't own a house right now.

    Truth. This was supposed to happen and believe is still under review. There is even talk about the Big 3 being consolidated into one entity...

    Nobody bet any specific time yet. My guess is April 2009 GM will file for Chapter 11...
