THE BIG THREE and "W"

The big three is meeting with "W" today...that scares me and it should probably scare the union workers too and management. Is Bush going to try to tighten the lid importation of foreign car? Will he charge a tarriff on the importation of foreign cars to be sold here? Or Limit the number of foreign cars to be sold here.

What ever comes of this meeting, one thing is for sure, it will cost the public more money or limit our choices to select and buy a decent car.

"W" is anti-union, so beware. You know Texas is a "free" state now due to his governership. Yeah, you are free to work three or four jobs to try to stay afloat.

Good luck America, either way the consumer will probably lose out on this conversation. If GM or any of them were smart they would get back to producing elecric cars and this time actually SELL them to people, not just lease them. I believe in 1998 when the electric car was re-born and only sold in California; you know the whole intention was a temporary fix untill the government could over ride the emissions board in California. See "Who killed the Electric Car?" documentary.

One thing is for sure..this is an OIL government and what Bush will do for the Big three will not be healthy for us. Bush allowed tax deductions on the extra large sized SUV they make. People actually got tax rebates for buying air polluting big vehicles. And the price of gas is right back up after the election. I for one expected it. Nothing will surprise me.

Oh yes, and I read in the paper where Ford for the last few years an accounting "errors" they have to fix. Yeah right! I see some under the table wheeling and dealing going on to bail or excuse the big three...of course, at the cost of the American people.

What is Bush going to do too, allow them to create even worse pieces of junk. If they would have always built decent vehicles that were dependable and kept you out of the repair shop..they probably wouldn't have this problem. But, since the beginning of time, they leaked oil (oh, that just sells more oil), brake down, and fall apart with in 26,000 miles. I know! It happened to me with a Ford Escort; but, only ONCE. Then I went foreign.

I am not buying junk when I can get something decent for the same amount of money or even less.
