I'm not saying we should have let the auto industry fail. But early intervention rather than a weak "Buy American" campaign that was really against communism more than "all imports" would have gone a lot further and saved a lot of money along the way.

Don't get me started with the bailout of either the Auto Industry or the banks. I don't agree with either but that is not the point I was bringing up here. If you want to rehash that topic again bump the thread and we can go.
