THE MARK UP ON AUTOMOBILES IS HUGE. THE OVERHEAD MUST COME DOWN. "END OF STORY" OVER HEAD MAY CONSIST OF: 30 MILLION IN BONUS' GOING TO PEOPLE THAT EARN MORE IN ONE DAY THAN THE "AVERAGE WORKER" MAKES IN A YEAR. WORKERS MAKING MORE THAN 3 1/2 TIMES(conservative) THE AVERAGE WORKER IN THE US. GREED, WASTE. I VOTE AGAINST ANY BAILOUT!!!!!!!!!!! comments@whitehouse.gov.

Great point about "trickle down". I have this argument with friends all the time (I suppose I'm the feisty type.) They can never understand the interrelation of economic forces and how prosperity CAN be raise for all. They live in a zero sum game mentality and no matter how many specifics I can raise to prove my point they retreat to a simplistic rich bashing, take care of the poor at all costs position. I spent 25 years in the Army traveling all over the world. The average American has absolutely no concept of what "poor" really is.

Well the financial industry is or was set to get the biggest bail out in history, and they were the ones who got into hot water by giving out money that they knew could never be paid back. So the people who work and pay the bills would have to pay instead of the people who took the loans and who made the loans. The car guys saw this and want in, it's lots easier to ask for the hand out instead of really running the company like it should be run. If i spend to much money and cant pay my bills they come take my stuff, turn off the power and unplug the cable..... Are we not all responsible for our actions? Or does that only count if you dont make enough money to have "friends" in DC?

Not for publishing though, Will hand it to you there Brian Sullivan, you seem to be alive there in all core aspects to journalism. All thoughts on NewsCorp / FBN aside, that's a good thing. Unless there is a slant I'm missing, seems to be great work there on offering up new ideas or new issues to focus on as of late. Such as - who's next, insurance sector ? What's odd is, we already DID AIG, and that they are NOW up to 150 billion ? sheesh that's pretty big- we can almost skip some of the rest of the insurance industry, but I do say - good idea if I recall it was you who asked who's next.

repost - didn't show up. I will give FBN this. Washington Post seems to run more oil petro sector ads. I often judge the media on the quality of the advertisers. FBN is in a boatload of trouble on that. from the paid tv advertisements at night to the ads in the day - they're often these low brow fly by night companies with gimmicky products. ALMOST as if it's all fake. Those head on ads ? call me insane, but I find them to be JUST an excuse to abuse the ole right brain with all that flashing and repeated brain washing 'head on' flash - says it again 'head on ' flash - says it THIRD time. After one of those ads ? I tell ya, I might be just worn out enough to suck down whatever is put in front of me. It's like a slap in the face too. USELESS gimmick products to remove SERIOUS pain ? give me a break. Try Oxycontin or my fav. HydroMorph - 2,000 as potent as morphine. Your ads leave people frustrated for health care solutions after they find out all the products you support are phony. It's a slap in the face. Anyone over 250k a year has a doctor scripting OxyContin and Valium without regard to addiction to opiates or benzo's anyhoo. I don't get FBN's advertising spectrum AT ALL.

What is the bottom line for the automakers.. They are in trouble from the unions, the high cost of taxes.. health care... really poor business managment... But, I can tell you what I personally think the problem is ... How bout you build a better car!!.. I finally gave up on my last Chevy.. I've bought a Suzuki car. The difference is night and day. For the first time in my 20plus years of driving .. I've not had to replace thousands of dollars of parts on my car after every 40,000 miles. I've not had the door fall off because of faulty door hinges.. I've not had to put 3 alternators on the car before 75k miles.. I've not had to put ignition boxes in the car every 40k.. and on and on and on!... I would love to buy an American built car. With the heft investment in cars today.. the quality is what I'm looking for.. A message to the BIG 3.. BUILD A BETTER CAR..WE WILL COME BACK ....

Forget aid I want a class action against Detroit and all who have taken part in destroying the pulmonary health of all children in the world. Hey, if the GOP can use the unborn to make a case- I'll use the BORN to make a case.
