I understand and agree with the frustrations of the top exec's and their bonuses, but do you really think it is good to punish all those GM employee's for the execs poor managment. Also take a look at many businesses, they have been caught but this economic down turn and not due to excessive spending but just not prepared. Also like it was stated above this would not be free money it would be a loan, I am all for it, we can not afford for the auto industry to collapse, just with the amount of people they employ and the taxes the contribute throught the employee making money and spending it and the manufactures sales. The made a good case on the radio today for the bailout and I for one think it needs to happen. I also think that some restructuring is also inline, I know where I work all of the top management agreed not to take a raise this year due to the economy and I feel that more companies need to take this approach.
