Spook QUOTE I thought your GOP masters wanted a forced bankruptcy? Make up your mind, lol.
Recall that MOST Repubs (and EVERY conservative) voted AGAINST the TARP money.
Conservatives thought the auto companies SHOULD declare bankruptcy. The Obamunists favored the bailout--it not only increases their stranglehold, but if the car companies declared bankruptcy, the fat union contracts would be voided.
The government let nearly every AIRLINE declare bankruptcy, and they all went through it--reorganized, and are still flying. Why NOT the car companies--except for the reasons cited?
Ford didn't take TARP money, and is profitable. Toyota, Saturn, and Honda are profitable. The thing that all of the profitable companies have in common? No huge union costs. The thing that all Detroit automakers have in common? BIG union contracts.
Sorry--but no amount of government meddling will ever make these companies profitable as long as they stay in Detroit and have these contracts.
Obama thinks he can run a car company? The guy that has never run ANYTHING? Maybe he should try getting Amtrak, the Post Office, and other government agencies on track first.
Libbies like to talk about "Our jobs and our money going overseas"--then they put up with a forced sale to Fiat--the Italian econo-box manufacturer.
WHERE in the Constitution does it say that the President can dictate who can and can't work for a company, and what the company can PRODUCE, how it is DISTRIBUTED, and how it is PRICED?
GM now stands for "Government Motors"--they and Chrysler should simply be like Ford and say "no thanks--we don't want the money under your terms!" If they have to take bankruptcy, it is preferable to the Fascist push of the Obamunists.
State (Federal) control NEVER works, whether it is the Stalinist "Five Year Plan", the Russian plans to make tractors, tanks, or planting of potatoes, or the Chinese Communist "Great Leap Forward."

That cretin has over stepped his authority, way over. Who does this shi!head think he is? Didn't know I was living in a Monarchy, and he's the king. If the prez were to tell me to step down, I'd tell him to go get bent. I see the prez the same way I see a garbage man.
I hereby charge that moron with usurpation of the Constitution.
My GOD b.o., please just take that razor blade and cut your wrists to the bone, and die laughing.

Your right they don't have to take the money but what of those companies that already did? This idea doesn't scare the crap out of you Liberal? If it doesn't then something is seriously wrong in your mental processes.
JOBZ if I am not mistaken dictates the MINIMUM a company is to pay employees and not every employee falls under the JOBZ guidelines. This idea of Barney "Fat Fingers" Crank and his cronies is going to screw over the lower income guys as well as those who probably should be receiving a serious pay cut unlike our local JOBZ program.
Goofball Republican I might seem to be, although I am registered with neither major political party, even YOU should be able to see the error of this proposal.
Oh and please, if you will, tell us where the Constitution gives the President the authority to tell a private company what they can do without regard to the employees of said company or it's stockholders. Let them go bankrupt and start anew.
