So Much for Making Money on the Bailout Posted by Doug Bandow Reports the Washington Post: The federal government is unlikely to recoup all of the billions of dollars that it has invested in General Motors and Chrysler, according to a new congressional oversight report assessing the automakers’ rescue. The report said that a $5.4 billion portion of the $10.5 billion owed by Chrysler is “highly unlikely” to be repaid, while full recovery of the $50 billion sunk into GM would require the company’s stock to reach unprecedented heights. “Although taxpayers may recover some portion of their investment in Chrysler and GM, it is unlikely they will recover the entire amount,” according to the report, which is scheduled to be released Wednesday. Well, it’s only money. And with the taxpayers facing more than $100 trillion worth of unfunded liabilities, what’s a few more wasted dollars?! cato-at-liberty.org
