You are right about Chrysler in 1979----they were on the brink of bankruptcy. Don't recall totally here----did they go to bankrupcy or did Jimmy Carter prevent that? mj

Yeah, and it seemed to work out O.K. In a democracy you're gonna be STUCK with stuff that isn't necessarily the BEST stuff for your economy. In China they decided to build the BIGGEST dam in history. They told like 4 million people that they had to get the hell out because their property was going to be flooded. They didn't put up with any lawsuits or environmental crap they just said get the HELL out. We REALLY need an improved Electrical Grid in this country. A BIG part of the reason we can't get it is all those people COMPLAINING and SUING. You want economic PROGRESS or you want DEMOCRACY?????????
