You asked " Name one that the government has taken over, Frank, hmmm?"
I named two companies that the government has taken over. They even
fired GM's CEO Rick Wagner. They do count! Going bankrupt or not!


They were taken over at their own request. I cant't believe that they
fired GM's CEO Rick Wagner after the bang up job that he had done
running the company into the ground by building expensive cars on the
cheap that nobody wanted? In a free market, they would have gone belly
up. They grabbed at straws. Why are you so invested in this?


Wrong again! The government like loan sharks, would not loan them money
without becoming a partner in the business. Again suffer slowly or make
it a quick end. It was not the auto industries fault for their demise.
It was the federal governments fault for making all these unfair free
trade agreements. With slave labor nations like China and many other
Asian nations can produce foreign cars with lower cost and increased
quality. Like Ross Perot stated during his presidential campaign "Pass
NAFTA and watch the giant sucking sound of jobs leaving the United
States". Free Trade lowers the living standards of all.

Why am I so invested in this? I LIVE IN MICHIGAN!
One out five Jobs here are auto related. I have many friends that had a
good life now destroyed by free triad policies. These policies are just
now having a domino effect on the rest of the U.S. economy.

They could have thought of that when they were building cars that nobody
wanted. They aren't the victims.


Wrong Again! Drive those cheap foreign cars and goods. Time will tell
who the real victims are. Hint: The entire U.S. will be the victim.

I voted for the Green Party. I am not against Obama. I am all for a
single taxpayer health care system. I am for the takeover of the banks.
Obama has no choice in taking over the corporations of the world.
Capitalism has failed and so will Socialism.


There never was capitalism or communism, Dan. It was all smoke and
mirrors to placate the masses. It has always been an oligarchy of
plutocrats. Here, in Russia, and in China it was all the same charade.
Whether you call them "nomenklatura", or "princes", they are the ruling
elite.


From your postings blaming the auto executives. You sound like you are
part of the ruling elite. Smoke and mirrors - take a real good look at
your own core belief system.

I just like clarity. If you can teach me something, I'll be eternaly
grateful.


Just read and learn... You should be grateful

Enjoy Life... Dan
