Ten Reasons the Big Three Are in Bad Shape
While wondering exactly how much money our government has to bail out large corporations, it’s worth looking at how we got here.
Yahoo Finance has a very interesting piece about the 10 Cars That Sank Detroit. I owned a couple of these and the Hummer was not one of them. Even when gas was under $2 a gallon, that thing just seemed gaudy and unnecessary to me. Great car for a rapper, not so much for normal folk.
But you know what? We’ve got to stop giving these companies billion dollar handouts. If they want some money, let them earn it. I say we make the Big Three put together their best demolition cars and we have them fight it out, Death Race style. Winner gets bailed out, losers get to go bankrupt. Can you imagine the ad dollars that would get poured into that? We could even have celebrity drivers like Britney Spears. Have your people call my people, American auto industry. We’ll do lunch, run this thing up the flagpole and see how it flies.
