First off, I agree with the "this shit is scary" deal...
Think of the hundreds of thousands of people right now wondering if they should buy those kiddos Christmas presents because they don't know whether or not they will have a job.....or even if they will be able to pay their electric bills. How bout them old retirees that are living from check to check....
I am worried for the people. The sound of GM being able to "get away" from the UAW and everything that has made it so hard for them to become profitable is getting better and better. But, what about the people. The UAW is completely moronic if they think they can put their foot down and demand higher wages and think they are going to make it. I mean...WTF are they thinking?!?
So...here we are...mid December 2008. The Camaro poised to come rolling off the assembly line only two months away and this shit happens (pardon my language...I'm mad). I've said it time and time again. Just come out with my Camaro, GM, and I'll be happy to do my part.
NOW...

They give him control over the money. He gets pissed because Congress won't help the Big 3. We are all sitting here bitching and moaning about how the money given to the banks was never regulated....and now....this could be a good thing. Paulson comes out and says, "You had your chance to give the Big 3 14 billion to save hundreds of thousands of jobs. YOU FAILED YOUR COUNTRY. And now, I'm going to say 'Merry Christmas' to all the families worried about their futures by giving the Big 3 the original 30 billion our American auto companies asked for. Congress, you can kiss my @ss."
