1. no kidding. this is the biggest concern about gutting these auto makers
sending jobs overseas, busting the unions, bankrupting them. Then, there's the argument (which I also cannot disagree with) that they did this to themselves with their obstinance and stubbornness when it came to manufacturing smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles instead of gas-guzzling houses on wheels.

I dunno - but yep, the GM bankruptcy could just be the straw that broke the camel's back (and I wonder if we're not already IN a depression as it is, I think we are) - if so, their bankruptcy would just worsen/prolong it.
