Al, > Why are you such a blockhead...the car in itself is unique...it costs too much...do you remember how much a PC cost when it first appeared? How many union jobs were saved thanks to the government "bailing out" the American-made PC industry? Did the government step in when the bottom fell out of the video game market in 1983? Maybe you can tell us how the Democrats rescued Intel when they were suffering in the 80's, IBM when they were lost in the wilderness a decade later, or Apple when they were without Steve Jobs. All three of them are successful, thriving American "icon" companies today. None of them needed to be "bailed out." Your comparison between the PC market and GM is an act of utter desperation on your part. Tenchusatsu
