We arent bailing out the Big 3, we arent propping up bad business and thats the problem people need to understand. As GM's CEO Rick Wagoneer said yeterday, that late last year GM made massive moves to turn the company around. The press, wall street, everyone saw light at the end of the tunnel. Then this economic meltdown happend, and GM was stuck right in the middle of revamping its costs, revamping its business, putting together a very expensive advanced powertrain program together, when the floor fell out on thier business.

I highlighted the failing business part. No matter how you wanna spin this, investing money into a business that's failing or about to fail is a bad idea. Are you gonna argue that investing in a failing business if a good idea?
