It is my personal belief that if it were so damn important that the car companies not fail, then the companies that have gained the most from the car companies failure to create products that are efficient and wanted by the car purchasing community, those companies should be the ones to foot the bill for the bailing out of the car companies. Especially since those companies that have gained the most from the large gas guzzling products that the car companies make and have made, have also reported the greatest profits of any company ever. Get Exxon to bail GM out! This of course should be done by Exxon purchasing a large amount of stock in the car companies, thus it's not a "giving" of money to them. Of course, I'm still an Objectivist, reading Ayn Rand.
