Default Re: GM axes performance division

Geez, Everyone just calm down we've now entered a new era of "change" as promised by the newly elected President. The plan here is to fix all that ails the U.S. with large amounts of $. Now everyone knows this fixes everything, you take money you don't have and give it to people that have proven they don't know how to keep their companies solvent, then you give LOT'S of money to banks and investment companies that are so good at their jobs that they've bankrupted themselves, and by the way aren't there alot of folks who bought too much home,cars,toys ect. that desperatly need our help so they don't get forclosed on? I was taught as a young man that you carry your own weight, you don't ask for anything and you live with the choices you make in your life...Good or Bad. Last week I heard Glen Beck on The Oriley factor make a statement that rang true basically you can only load so much on your citizens before you have civil discontent and Revolution. Now these are some pretty strong words however seems to me I recall way back in history class there was something similar that happened about 1776 for close to the same reasons. I for one find it unacceptable that my tax dollars are being used to prop up a bunch of Failures, that is the very essence of capitalism you can do many things with alot of possiblities, the rewards if you suceed are yours and the problems are yours if you fail. Sorry for the rant just gets my blood up each time I hear of these Govt. freebies. Joe
