you people just dont get it, this does not just affect the auto industry. Have you ever heard of the trickle down effect? well thats what will happen here. If people dont have jobs they dont buy, if they dont but the business commuity dont sell. if they dont sell they close, more job losses. Even you sould get that, thats what we were told in the Regan administration. Remember? dont be so hasty to complain about the texan that arrivied in his jet, at least he sees what will happen if the auto industry fails, and he does help the people where he lives. Would you, or would you just say to hell with them?

I saw on the news this morning that these guys arrived in Washington to beg for money in their private jets with limos waiting for them. How much money did that cost? Also, I heard that one of the beggars was paid over $25M last year. Seems like they''re really worried.

Let this guy take his hat and go back to Texas/ Who cares. If the dealer did not jack the cost up so high, so they could become rich, maybe they would not be begging for money. Let them go down, Fast. By By, you made it happen, you live with it.

correction;

I don''''t feel very sorry for the dealerships either. With their overly inflated prices. I know a lady that took her Jeep to the dealership for routine maint. They changed all the fluids, thats it, and walked away with a $1500.00 bill.

True story.........
