What no one is openly coming out and saying is that the car Co's WANT to go bakrupt so that they can give the heave ho to high Union wages and bennies..

I agree, but Congress is PAID FOR by the Unions so....Congress will never allow it to happen even though it should be.

If they claim bankruptcy the union contracts will be void?

I do not believe that to be the case. Though in order for them to continue to keep their jobs, and if they want this bailout to happen....the UAW is going to have to make some concessions be they temporary or permanent....and they will have to go to a vote of the UAW....that could take too much time! Did you know that 3600 workers were without work this year and that they still receive 95% of their pay??? They sit in a big union hall all day, play cards and take naps.......this was on the Today show yesterday!!!

Not to worry, the governent added 7,000 new jobs in November.
Just 7,000 more slaries, benefits and retirement plans for our citizens to pay for.
25 years and out, then find another government job on a different state, county or local level and double dip retirement.
Not bad, not bad at all.

There is no plan on what we can expect from a bailout, what the stipulations are, or how long before it's paid back, if ever.
Just postponing the inevitable. Imho, throwing good money after bad.
Like BF said, even with a bailout 30,000 more on the unemployment line.
