If ya can't compete, trim your fat! It pisses me off to give money to people who are inept and can't straighten out their own problems whether it be the auto manufacturers, banks, wannabe real estate tycoons, or the welfare check crowd. The Big Three has all kind of people who went to school and studied corporate finance, accounting, and management and get paid more than I make to figure this crap out. Hell, instead of bailing out these losers why doesn't the government give me a tax break for paying my mortgage on time (early usually, with additional principal), not carrying any credit card debt, driving a 15 year old truck, and all around living within my means? I guess I'm just Joe Middle Class who gets the SHAFT BIG ENOUGH FOR AN ELEPHANT TO FEEL IT!

WELL PUT !!!!!! No one would be there to help me out if I coudn't make a payment or was close to bankruptcy. I have to work my butt off to keep up the balancing act, but I make it work and stay within my means for my family.

I'm not sure wether it makes more sense to bail out the auto makers or see what happens if they are allowed to fail but I don't think the unions are doing a good job of making it's case. Unless you are already drinking the UAW Kool-Ade the rhetoric doesn't buy much sympathy.
