Wylie's Mom thank you for starting this thread. I for one am saying NO,NO,NO to the bail out for all three.

We have a relative working for one of the big auto makers, I heard that he recieved 90% of his salary for a year after being laid off. I don't know what the buy out thing is for the auto employees but he chose not to do that and eventually did go back to work for the company by moving to another out of state location. He is only scheduled to work 11 days between now and the new year getting 90% of his salary

I hope that the answer to any more bail outs will be NO, NO, These companys need to Reorganize and regroup, the companys, the Unions, the employees need to get their act together and quit being so greedy, if the employees want to go on their strikes let em, after awhile they will come around when they get hungry enough, that is just my opinion.

Please understand that I am not against being Union, in fact if it wasn't for Jack retiring with a union we wouldn't have the benefits that we have, grant you the only help we get now is through their prescription meds plan which we are very grateful for, if we had to pay the full amount for Jack's Parkinsons Meds, we would be standing in line for food stamps, and maybe standing on the corners like some others holding a sign; ours saying, "we don't work for food but gratefull for a hand out."
Fortunately the employees with the company that Jack worked for weren't greedy therefore we still are able to have what he retired with meaning the prescription benefit and are grateful for what we got.

Praying that all this is going to get better, I don't even listen to the news anymore cause it is just too upsetting seeing the way things have gone.

We have been paying a tremendous amount for American made vehicles far too long, and the parts have been outrageous too, now the facts are coming out and it is not a pretty picture.

Thanks again Wylie's Mom this is a subject that needed to be bought up.
Please excuse me if I got jumbled on my phrases here, I hope what I have said makes sence to those that read what I have posted, I tend not to come on the computer much these days, Jack came in to play in the arcades and I saw your posting and couldn't help but comment.

Patti and Jack and Girls.
