Management of the Big 3 automakers have made a large number of really stupid choices. They want to be bailed out so they can continue making stupid choices. Doing so would be very poor economics.

If they made a car that somebody actually wanted... then they would have a chance. Instead they design, make and smarmily sell dreck. <strong>That</strong> is the issue.

In fact, I plan on printing it out to distribute among some co-workers tomorrow. This bailout has been a major topic of conversation and is a perfect issue for us. People are pissed about this issue, and for good reason. Controversy can always be fun and energizing, but I am happy the LP is issuing this release.
