		<description>The Unions have long been at fault for driving our auto industry behind the foreign manufacturers.  Everyone likes to have their job protected, but the Unions have gone overboard in their &quot;duty.&quot;

They have simply priced themselves out of the market and are on the edge of making their jobs worthless.  Bailouts will not fix the broken wage market in the auto industry.  An all out bankruptcy will.  We all know that with consolidation of the big 3 and bankruptcy, the ultimate Union buster program would be implemented.

That is why I believe we will see a bailout because the Unions drive the Democratic ticket and who just won the election?</description>

		<description>I read an article a few days ago that someone wrote,saying that the car manufacturers were like a swimmer with a 50lb. weight tied to him, you can pick up the weight and carry it for 50 yards or so to help him out but ultimately they would drown because they could not make it until the weight was removed. 

They were comparing the big 3 auto plants to Toyota,as Toyota is being hurt the least and still performing. The numbers that they used were, The big3 had approximately 75 dollars per hour invested in their employees with all of their perks and benefits included, compared to Toyota with approximately 42 dollars per hour invested in their employees. 

I would say that the big 3 have more than a 50lb. weight tied to them.  Even at this time their Unions are saying NO MORE CONCESSIONS. It appears to me that they can surely see the writing on the wall,no profit no jobs.

I like to see everyone making a good salary but they have an opportunity to save their jobs but refuse to do so,and yet they want the tax payers to bail them out. I say NO, they have the opportunity to save their own jobs if they care to try. 

Most of the people think that when the government bails someone out that all they have to do is print more money, they do not understand that the tax payer is footing the bill.

This leads me to the illegals that are working in this country and not paying taxes. They are not helping any of the taxpayers or retiree&#039;s. The illegals should be finger printed and made to submit a D.N.A. sample before giving them  a one way ticket back to their country. The people that hire the illegals should be fined $50,000.00 for each illegal that they have hired the first time that they are caught and if they are caught a second time, a prison sentence of 5 years should be automatically imposed. 

It&#039;s time that the American Citizens and Taxpayers vote the people out of their offices that don&#039;t stand up for the taxpayer.</description>

		<description>I agree, people&#039;s perspectives may be different considering which side of the fence they are on at the moment.  However today, the realization that the United States is in a recession should be an eye opener even for those with jobs not affected... yet.

A recession will affect everyone to some degree.  Hopefully people will realize that things aren&#039;t as rose colored as they think just because they aren&#039;t currently suffering like many are.  It takes but an instant to change the outcomes of many lives and a reeling economy can turn a life upside down very quickly.</description>

		<description>It is hard for anyone to realize what kind of shape the country is in at this time.  Until they actually experience a bit of loss themselves, they still think they are on the outside looking in. They are the ones who are spending money, because they don&#039;t see an end to making more. Anyone who has money tied up in mutual funds or a 401 K are feeling it now, because they have experienced loss. But if they have a job that the times have not yet touched, they still feel safe.  Maybe a feeling they should beware of.</description>
