"but the specific relevant case is putting the union, a junior creditor, ahead of the senior creditors in the Chrysler bankruptcy."

That isn't what is happening, though. There is roughly $2 billion in cash that is up for grabs, that goes to the senior creditors. The government is offering to put $30 billion into the new company once it exits BK. That isn't up for grabs and it is a strange argument to claim that it is.

I don't see why taxpayer money should be given to those creditors.
