For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: now we're bailing out the auto companies?
Where is this government inteference into capitalism going to end? How concerned are you?
On the other hand, the auto industry employs about ten percent of working America -- maybe much more if you include ancillary industries that supply carmakers. It's estimated that if any of the Big Three goes under, it could cost about 4 million jobs.
Is that enough of a moral imperative for government to try and prevent it? Or is this a slippery slope, especially with Democrats in control of Congress and the White House, that is leading us right to socialism?
