They should have filed bankruptcy, reorganized, renegotiated and shed excess expenses to make them lean, mean and streamlined. The bail-out of GM was unnecessary and ended up being a giveaway to the unions by the Obama admin. GM, btw, ultimately did file bankruptcy reorganization as Romney suggested.

We ought to have halted a bankruptcy, put the clock back, changed the political landscape and decreased prices to make them lean, mean and streamlined.

Back when we were talking about the wallstreet bailout and previous auto bailout it made sense. Now it just doesnt. Weve wasted too much money on these failures of companies. The taxpayers shouldnt be responsible for that failure. Invest the money in green renewable energy and public transportation instead to get us off our dependency on cars anyways. We need to move beyond cars as the main mode of transportation in the US.

No, they made the mistake, they deserve to fail. If the government were to bail out these companies, ultimately we, the people, would be the ones bailing them out, because the government forced us to.
