Since the government is on a handout spree Detroit has suffered so bad for so long (doesn't matter who's fault anymore...who's fault was Katrina?) it should have been "bailed out" way before Wall Street. We always let others go first as we're polite...but before the typical Government response of "oh we can only rebuild the coast of Florida from the devastation caused by the known danger but built there anyway storms". It's long been Michigan's turn, since the Gov is handing out money, and we don't want to be last again. So stop handing out money....but do it after you save Michigan from ending up a Somalia like "Failed State". As a Detroit conservative it’s pretty simple to explain.

BY simply refusing to take ANY cut in pay, the airlines went down the tubes. Well, lets see, other airlines picked up the slack and even though rocky, you can still fly anywhere you want. So, Big Three, suck it up and go bankrupt. You need NEW management anyway. The UAW and their leadership did the same as the Unions did during the Eastern Airlines battle.

Even as Russia and China pursue capitalism, which has proven successful in the US, and THEY both depart from their communist ways, which have proven unworkable, the US is becoming more communist. All of our current problems can be attributed to socialist policies like the community renewal act passed by Carter and amended to its current poison pill status by Clinton. To make matters worse, now that the US has BO, it will accelerate. For America's best days, look behind you! Well said and I agree, but it still doesn’t address the true underlying problem.

Lets look to the future, we still have to look forward to the current group of politicians continuing to grasp more power and further meddle in the markets. The same ones that lie to us daily will ultimately try to hand off the problems of $60 trillion of unfunded accrued debt for "Entitlements" to the next group of scoundrels. One wonders how many $100 bills will it take for our grandchildren to buy a loaf of bread? Ms. MacDonald
