Zeb, If 90% of the loans were good, then why bail them out?
What do the uniuons have to do with the auto companies designing and building cars with shitty gas milage, a short life and far less re- sale value than comparable Japanese/foreign models? You jackass do not understand. I am not necessarily FOR the auto bail- out. If you will look more closely what I am doing is refuting your attempts to paint unions as the sole or at least primary CAUSE of the auto company's problems and pointing out the hypocricy of your defending one bail-out (the financials) while attacking another bail- out( the auto companies).
