		<description>Just a thought; Instead of boycotting American cars it is probably a better idea to get rid of the politicians pushing this monstrosity. We don&#039;t want to punish politicians by further wrecking our manufacturing base.</description>

		<description>I like the proposals......but...I have the impression that the UAW would rather the companies go down rather than EVER agree to major concessions. Union leadership will not be troubled seeing their members all lined up for &quot;government cheese&quot; because they themselves will never be on that line with them.</description>

		<description>The American auto worker doesn&#039;t need help.  I hear he earns about $73 an hour, plus benes. The &quot;job bank&quot; gives them 95% of their base pay and benes, if they lose their job, up to 2 years. Sounds like a job I ought to look into. I wonder how much he will earn after the sympathic government and unions get more control....</description>

		<description>Frequently, you can tell a lot about the creativity and wisdom of government programmers by the acronyms they create and use to market their product.  

The &quot;American Automotive Reorganization and Recovery Plan (AARRP)&quot; says just about all you need to know about the GOPs inability to put together a marketable product for their ideas. 

WITHOUT looking at any details, just looking at AARRP, you can pretty much figure out it&#039;s incredibly weak on marketability and big to very big on  details that the average Bubba will never understand.  

  When the GOP figures out you just can&#039;t sell a Big Mac under the label &quot;BS_CRAP &amp; Stuff&quot; they might actually start getting noticed... (Beef Shredded, Cooked Rare, Adding Pickles and Stuff.)</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;o Agrees to reduce wages and benefits to the levels paid by non-Big Three manufacturers.

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
That&#039;ll go over like a turd in a butter churn.</description>

		<description>I have just heard the 32 and 1/2 Democrat/pundit claim this Bailout scam is good for the taxpayers-if that is true what aren&#039;t the Democrats/pundits lining up to put in their own money?

But I imagine many of them have figured out ways to get sons and brother-in-laws in on any gravy train. The one public works project I support at the moment is building a new federal prison out in the Mohave Desert-no air conditioning, no swimming pools, just big piles of rocks. We have lots of rocks in the desert.</description>

		<description>Is it just me, or does it sound like the White House is the world&#039;s worst negotiator when it comes to bailouts? 

The Dems appear to be playing from the same bailout book that brought us the TARP:
- announcing that a deal has been worked out between them and the White House
- not showing the wording of the bill until they ask for a vote
- painting Republicans as obstructionists
- Republicans then buckle in the end, and

WE ALL SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES. 

All because the White House announces that they are in agreement &quot;in principle.&quot;</description>

		<description>One issue not mentioned is safety/design standards. There are multiple little differences between EU cars and American cars. If we could standardize the regulations, Ford and GM could make the same cars they sell in Europe here. Less design cost and greater selection.</description>
