Let do a little comparison: If it came down to bailing out failing industries... Would it be a good idea to bail out soda companies? Would it be a good idea to bail out Tobacco companies? Would it be a good idea to bail out alcohol companies? Would it be a good idea to bail out the fast food industry? Would it be a good idea to bail out __________________? What is the benefit to bailing out the Automotive industry... Who stands to benefit/profit from this bail out? |

In addition people often buy new cars because they don't like their old car anymore while the car still functions. People also normally don't buy the smallest/cheapest car possible that brings them from A to B. | |
