What happens when politics tells business how to run its business.... again.

Seems to me government is not telling GMAC how to run their business-they are just enabling them to continue to run it badly by giving them bail out money.

That may be the case, but I see no effective difference. If the auto compaies are being run that badly, they should be allowed to fail. The government has no right (and beyond that, is foolish) to forcibly take money from you , or me, and use it to prop up companies that deserve to go the way of the Edsel.

You are absolutely right.
