My Only Beef

My only beef with the government deciding to withhold future tax dollars to the bankrupt auto industry is the fact that government couldn't bend over quick enough for Wall Street. We bailed out the Fat Cats, and still are, but are willing to let the Work Horses go under. That doesn't sound right to me. I understand the financial industry (Fat Cats) is too big to fail, or whatever. But if the government is going to bailout the white collar it should have no qualms about the blue collar. I honestly have no problems with Obama telling the auto industry enough is enough, I really don't. Or at least I wouldn't had we not already given 10 times the amount of money to Wall St.

What will be interesting is listening to the right wing argue against Obama on this one. They're for bailouts socialism when it's Bush but against it when it's Obama.
