I thought we voted for Change?
 
What bothers me is the very good chance that all non-american companies that compete with these struggling American companies, will end up being import taxed out the butt and will won't be able to afford the better vehicles.

GM, Ford, and Chrysler doesn't understand that we buy Toyotas, Nissans, BMWs...etc not because they are foreign but because they are higher quality vehicles.

Build higher quality vehicles we will buy them, it is really that simple. They need to get rid of the unions that control the workers, that would be a huge start.

GM also says it would begin repaying federal loans in 2012, though it might need more money in 2013 and 2014 if it needs to contribute to U.S. pension plans.

Lol. I bet they will. If they had been smart enough to plan for the future in decades past, they wouldn't be in this mess. I'm at a loss as to how they plan on repaying any of these federal loans. Something tells me they're in a "just get the money, we'll figure out how to pay it back later" mindset.

Yup. I watched a special one night where they played a clip of each GM CEO (ranging from the 70's to 00's) saying that they believed that their quality had increased during their tenure (many were during times that GM had notably pathetic quality). They don't seem to get that the average consumer is not stupid...
 
I think Las Vegas casinos should adopt the US Government's risk model. The customer gets to keep his winnings, but if he suffers a loss, the casino should cover it. Just think of how stimulating that would be for the gambling public.
 
I think I should tell my CC and Mortgage company to fxxx off and then tell the gubment I need a bailout.

Anybody think it will work for me?

No . Honest americans are here to bail out people who should be in jail, and people who got loans with no proven income, and pay for corporate trips for bank workers,and pay millions in bonuses for the bailed out banks.....

People that are honest will only bitch about this crap on places like this. We need someone to stand up and organize a revolution dammit. I am sick of paying for leakers. No job, find one, cant pay bills, find a job.

Meanwhile the anointed one wants to "bail out" people that took out loans on homes that are now worth less.

So My fawking 7 yr. old son will be paying for leaker family #1 so they can stay in there home. Unreal. We are this. close to hitting a depression, then it will be chaos.

The media and gov't keeps us thinking everything is fine. Whatever.

Now our state gov.(WI) said in his state of the state address he wants to give an early out for prisoners, make only one license plate/vehicle(since all the convicts will be out), raise cig taxes 75 cents, yada, yada yada.

Keeps getting better every day. I will be outfitting my 40 as a zombie destroyer, move my family to my 40 acres on the western side of the state, and live off the f'n land.
 
so...
you nominating yourself?

there hangs the situation, everyone wants someone else to stand up.

I am close. This s*** drives me nuts. Common sense left these politicians at the bus depot. I mean really , lets just think about this in a whole picture.

Most of these politicians went to school, went to college, got a job in our gov't without EVER having the skill or knowledge on how to run a business let alone the day to day ops. Not to mention the fact never having an honest job.

White Shark prolly feels my pain. This is a big turd sandwhich topped off with some crap dressing with a side of , "sit there and take it americans, 'cause us politicians can do what we want with the advice of other corrupt politicians, 'cause gol darnnit we know what is best for the country."

Fawking sick I tell ya.
 
agree completely...

Serious
Didn't T. Jefferson say it is good to have a revolution every 200 yrs?
I also have to stop listening to am radio. It boils me up every time.

Here is a good one. Wife's company makes ovens. Big ones. Put a bid on 3 ovens which bake those propeller wings for wind machines..
The bid was 900k.

China came in at wait for it

$300k. Unreal. At least they will get the service contract:rolleyes:.

I think someone (other than me) well connected somehow, needs to organize a national shutdown for a week and see what the fawk happens then. That could be the start of a revolution.

All this "crap/stimulus bill will do is make a larger gap between the rich and the poor. The rich will get richer while this happens allowing them to keep the "poor" working for them.

Every day, I hear a new part of the crap sandwhich we are all going to be paying for, and our kids. Maybe I should read the 1400 page pile of crap.
 
It's really fxxxing sad that the government allocates all this money for bailing out business in this country, yet outsources components for infrastructure projects to China. Welcome to the United States of Walmart.
 
you think things are bad now, wait till a company the size of, and with the brand recognition of gm bites the dust.
 
I voted for more of the same, and got change.

Absolute bull****. You may have voted for more of the same, and guess what, you got more of the same. Just this time it isn't the Industrial Military Complex feeding at the trough, but a different set of greedy fxxxs who care not a whit about the welfare of the nation and the people.

All the "conservatives" who bash "liberals" and vice versa are duped fools. It is all the same game, just whose turn up at the feeding station. Corporatism, (not at all to be misconstrued as an anti-big business term) has run amok.

The illusion of a two party system effectively divides and conquers the masses from assembling and taking control of the government. So long as you are convinced that there are just two teams, and you best pick one, you forget that the game is rigged and that the final score will always be the same.

They are shutting down completely in Janesville, WI.


Aside from all the crap sandwiches we are being force fed, some of the local farmers I do work for, are doing fine. Ya corn is in the schitter, milk prices are in the tank; Most of the work I do is for 3rd gen. farmers/ companies who don't owe.

I feel for the farmers who are not 3rd gen. and they decided to buy a $250k tractor.
 
you said it!

SO true, they are all lying crooks...this is the dose of reality we all need to keep in mind.
 
disclaimer: i am not racist in the least little bit so don't take the following statement in that text...

same s*** / different color.

and what i am saying is no matter who takes office all thier function is to be a puppet "face" for the people to see.
black . white . native . immigrant ... they all will do what the people behind the scenes want them to do.

i had hopes for your country when Bush left... now i have my doubts.

i would like to see someone with balls to stand up for what is right to take office...
