Toyota Announces First Ever Loss
-
GM has announced plans to double production in China and Mexico. Now that sure as hell is going to do a lot to help put people back to work. Admittedly a lot more people are buying GM cars in China, so I understand where they are coming from. I just wish they weren't doing it with money that Obama picked from my pocket. General Motors said on April 9 that it has "abundant cash" to finance production expansion to double its sales in China over the next five years.[^]

True. The plan is to increase non-US production from 15% of total production to 25% of total production over the course of the next 5 years. If the market expands, no US jobs will suffer, but that might be wishful thinking.

Frankly I don't care whether it is wishful thinking or precognition. I just want to know what right Obama has to take money from me and my kids and give it to these dumbos to let them stay in business when they have demonstrated they are not fit to manage a kiddie-kar race track, let alone a once-great car company. As a lover of all things Obama, I am sure you can explain it to me.

:laugh: Oh, brother... You are both perfect examples of pegs fitting their holes very comfortably indeed. You've simply failed to notice that the holes have been carefully reshaped to accomodate you.
Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

The same right he has to take money from me and give it to assholes on Wall Street. The same right he has to fund wars I oppose in AfRaq. The same right he has to give military and financial assistance to Israel, the source of most problems in the M.E. He's the president. This is a democracy. He won the election. Get over it.

Well, of course, I reshaped it. People like John and me don't adapt to their environment; we adapt our environment to us.

Ah yes, the President as strongman theory - you've been studying with Stan, I see. Personally, I prefer Presidents who are more interested in the citizens of this nation than helping out Mexico and China. Though apparently both Bush and Obama don't agree with me.
