What I love about this debate (as illustrated by some of the comments in that article) is that people keep espousing capitalist principles to support the workers (they are paid what the market says, someone is worth whatever someone is willing to pay, the american way etc...) all the while neglecting the fact that if the government bails out the big three, that flies directly in the face of the free market.
They have a sharty product that no one wants and ridiculous labour costs. Their competitors even charge more for their products and still outsell them (specifically the civic). I'm all for "saving them" but something needs to be done about their business model, this money needs to come with strings.
