How many jobs did he save if Chrysler and GM (and their suppliers and subsequently Ford and 1000's of other companies) had gone under? We would have been in a depression. He didn't save a single job, both companies went bankrupt. All he did was to prolong the bankruptcy, which would have happened earlier with less government restrictions and a better deal for both companies.

There is no evidence that Obama's takeover of the auto industry saved ONE job over what would have been saved by the normal bankruptcy process, particularly had it been accompanied by some financial assistance. There was no need to nationalize the auto industry. >> Those guys handled the crisis as perfectly as could be expected. A ridiculous claim that clearly illustrates your lack of basic understanding of business concepts.
