There is no doubt at all that the auto companies going under were mismanaged for the longest time.
Which is exactly why I don't support bailing them out, OR paying for their stupid pension plans.
These companies should crash and burn, the unions should be shut the hell down, and everything should start again from the GROUND up.
But hey, lets throw away billions of dollars that are grandkids are going to have to pay back because we don't have the balls NOW, to tell these companies to screw off.
