I'd agree, current pay rates for GM workers are higher than the industry normal and in that case they cannot keep up with the industry in terms of cost. Formal bankruptcy where they could get rid of the parts which brought them to bankruptc

Do rich people use more roads, public education, food safety? What is your point in making rich people pay more for these services other than they worked hard for their money and you want to take a free ride?

With 20% unemployment not sure how people are going to work. Just so you know the underlying theme at France and Greece. Intellectual people in France know that their number of work days are not sustainable but as of now if government tries

Is Greece any different, bloated government, high unemployment, high government salaries and where did it go? Default on its financial obligations. You would know that if you were aware of what is happening but seems you don't.

If it bothers someone to work extra they should not be doing that work. Because it means you are doing something you do not love. I do not mean to say you have to slave for 80 hours week but let's be honest when you want to create something

I've heard from real people interviews why they do not work long or hard in France. They officially have one month of vacation more than the working class in US. The reason people told is they think tomorrow is not going to be better than t

It is almost laughable how soon people forget where they have been, how much national debt has has been piled to bring this meager growth in economy. The main reason the employers are hiring is the extension of temporary tax cuts. It is onl

Lots of these things will be coming out of white house this election year. They will propose specific changes to woo parts of population. This one is for those who are more technical oriented, couple of days ago white house talked about red

Do rich people use more road, parks or any public facilities more than the average person? In fact they use less. Is they any other reason than a rich person makes more money so should pay more taxes. In that context rich should also pay mo

Down voting is not going to help, have you heard his any speech in last year? in most of his speeches he has talked about distribution of wealth. What motivation does the smart people have if that happens? Entrepreneurs work hard and give u

Another example, proving government intervention in private industry is a bad idea and let markets and consumer demand work out their course. Not sure when Washington will understand that? seems definitely not under current administration.

You mean to say Bush bailed out GM, Citibank, AIG and other long list of companies??? Please at least know a little about the subject before you jump in to comment.

No surprises here. Unions give to democrats who support them after getting elected, its a vicious cycle. And many of them are government unions using tax payer money, go figure. Big corporations always stay on the fence as they do not want

Yep second that. Last election he ran on transparency, change and hope. And as three years went by there was no transparency in billions of dollars (TARP) given to big corporations. Change? yeah sure, for worse. And he does not talk about h

Never heard of building aircraft (Boeing) as government subsidized. If you are talking about solar panels then yes.

Yet another way to fuel Democrats and White House's never ending spending spree!

Really Washington? Do you see what is happening to Boeing? You are missing the point it is not about software company or manufacturing company sooner or later we all will get affected. It is about the path of self destruction Democrats are
