Comments on: Bush Administration, in Bed with Banks, Shuns Union with Automakers http://dirtdiggersdigest.org/archives/248 chronicling corporate misbehavior (and how to research it) Sat, 24 Mar 2012 23:44:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Julia http://dirtdiggersdigest.org/archives/248/comment-page-1#comment-1168 Julia Wed, 12 Nov 2008 15:58:54 +0000 http://dirtdiggersdigest.org/?p=248#comment-1168 The bailout was for finanacial institutions supposedly and that definition has been changing daily. My thoughts though are in agreement with the Republicans for the first time ever. We did not bailout Amtrack (mass transit), we did not bailout the airlines (mass transit). If the auto industry gave us vehicles here in America like they do in Europe they wouldn't be in this mess (Ford Mondeo for one and use of the Ecoboost engines that are going to be produced in Wales!). How about this idea? Have the oil companies who say their record profits are justified by the money they are 'pouring' into research and development 'invest' in the auto industry? How about that idea for cause and effect. The bailout was for finanacial institutions supposedly and that definition has been changing daily.
