> I don’t like that the govt had to step in, but it was to curb total economic collapse. Let’s fix the problem that made it that way instead of whining about what had to be done in the aftermath.

and what made the problem in the first place for GM and Chrysler?

anyway, the gov stepping in is just proof that gov wants to control everything. It’s fucking BS that they stepped in and a horrible precedent to set for America. The banks were bad enough, the car industry was way out of line.
