600 a month? Kind of pricey.. What model does that get you these days?
Vehicle Payments and Insurance Payments, though in truth the Insurance is $180/month, I figure when I have the vehicle paid off it'll drop to $80/month.

As far as the model, something under $25K

Well they got their bailout. The CEOs can now raid the cookie jar to have wonderful christmas trips for their families. I hope they burn in hell. They could have filed for bankruptcy like the airlines and still remained in business, but why bother when they can get free money.

you do understand this bail out was more for the unions than the auto company..and bush was just playing kick the can down the road to the obama admin...when the auto companys file bankruptcy..everyone they owe money too does not get paid...to include retirees...they will lose their retirements..and med bennies..the supplies wont get paid..all the sub industrys around that support the auto industry and their employees..such as local restaraunts in the area these car manif are..just a example...it will bankrupt them all..to include several million newly forecosed homes....the amount of cash uncle sugar loaned the auto companys will only last them at the current burn rate of cash only like two months..in two month's the auto industry is going to back up at congress asking for another who knows how many billion..dont worry..your wish is going to come true.they are going to file bankruptcy anyway...and they will have all that tax payer moneyn hand...and the milllions that were going to lose retirment accounts and their houses will still lose them..it is just going to be a few months latter than expected do to the loan they just recieved...:weed:

Yet the CEO's keep every dollar they've ever skimmed and I'm sure their pensions are safe and secure. Shit rolls down hill. If you want to find out where the shit is coming from, look at the top of the hill.

Not true, in the case of the Big Three the shit was pushed up the hill before it rolled down the hill. It got there by Unions that refused to understand that if the company was not competitive in the short, medium and long term that there would be no company.

Not that the management didn't fail to do its duty when it agreed to play ball with the unions. But on the whole, both sides showed themselves to be short-sighted (if not blind), selfish, greedy and incompetent.

so 14 million in bonus and salary for one years "work" by the CEO is not shit ? I don't give a fuck what a person does, it's not worth 14 million per year, expecially when your company can't afford it.

Maybe part of it was the unions, but you can not say that CEO's pay and perks didn't play a part. How much per year does it cost for the CEO's private jet? Payments, maintenence, fuel? Come on, tell me that is the fault of the working guy too.

I think someone who wasn't so greedy could do a better job. Get someone to run the place that doesn't get paid 14 million per year to look for ways to skim off the top.

It all falls back to "how can they get theirs no matter who they have to screw to get it"
