If the government subsidizes Detroits arrogant stupidity, its just going to prolong the inevitible. I believe that Bush said Detroit "needs to focus on building relevant products". What a novel idea to put forth, building cars people want...what an unbelieveably bold statement. we have no business pouring money on Detroit, instead, Detroit needs to wake up out of their stupor and stop building chassis that are 2 cycles behind, and drivechains that are 4 product cycles behind, you and your pushrod driven FWD 4 speed transaxle garbage. That's exactly the stark foot-up-the-ass Detroit needs. In an obtuse and out of character move, the administration actually got something right for a change.

I do believe, as US citizens, it is our duty to realize all the effects of Globalization. I believe the government can help ensure that we are all educated about Globalization. Cheapest isnt necessarely best!
