Maybe "Too Big to Fail" is just Too Big
 
I heard Robert Reich on NPR Marketplace last night and just went and found his commentary -- it's a really interesting take on the "too big to fail" reasoning and the impending merger of GM and Chrysler.

The gov should not approve the merger. If they are too big to fail then they are too big and they are probably a monopoly. They should not have approved all the banking mergers or the Exxon/Mobile merger either.

An interesting counterpoint to the anti-merger argument --- that it would be beneficial to the 3rd of the "Big 3" if GM and Chrysler merge: http://www.forbes.com/2008/10/27/aut..._1028ford.html
