Agreed. The economy is already getting clobbered. The big auto makers thought they could ride the Soccer Mom SUV frenzy forever. Let them fail, or better yet, let them be forced to splinter off into smaller companies and create more competition.
The biggest industries are dominated by too few members to foster enough competition to encourage big revolutions in design, function and quality.
That Wall Street bailout set a terrible precedent. It's not the governments job to provide handouts. The basis of Capitalism is that some companies will succeed and others will fail. That's the risk they take.
If they don't like it, move your operations to France. They love providing handouts.
