The media has been helping to promote the bailouts. The hate is coming straight from the American people. Part of it is jealousy, no doubt. Part of it is resentment for having to pay for these guy's stupidity. Regardless of how good they are at making cars the fact is that they've failed to identify key trends and keep up with them.
I, for one, don't want to give money to anyone that will squander it. I'm for a bailout if, and only if, there are heavy regulations and oversight and the money can be taken back if the auto companies don't hold up their end of the deal.
