The UAW is a big part of the problem....actually it is a huge part of the problem&lt;br&gt;This is a problem caused by Washington all together on both sides of the fence, it started with the collapse of the available credit, for which the automotive business is structured around....buying and selling of paper, buying and selling of rates etc.....the mortgage crisis is a result of the Clinton administration, "Clinton admitted that himself", it seemed like the right thing to do at the time he said...getting nonqualifying people into mortgages that is..&lt;br&gt;The big 3 more specifically had a HUGE roll in bailing the US economy out after 9-11 now it is time to help a company(companies) that have helped build this country....this cannot be a windfall or a gift, it has to be a short term loan under strick control...&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dave</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 21 Nov 2008 15:33:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Bigger Than Detroit</title><link>http://washingtonindependent.com/19218/bailout#comment-3939193</link><description>&lt;p&gt;That is true, regarding the imports...but that is the key word.....imports...keep the US manufacturer going....the problem here is the UAW, it is bleeding the Big 3 dry, the avg worker at the import plants(non union) makes 28.00 per hour and when was the last time they had labor issues....the avg UAW worker 70.00+ per hour and when the plnat suspends the line and sends the workers home they still get paid....it seems whenever they go on strike they get more and more  and more...&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dave</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 21 Nov 2008 15:25:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Bigger Than Detroit</title><link>http://washingtonindependent.com/19218/bailout#comment-3938470</link><description>&lt;p&gt;O.K. the big 3 come up with a new business plan and Congress responds with a $25 billion load.  What then?  If the financial system doesn't free up money for loans (they got $300 billion, remember?) the big 3 will go down.  We can produce all of the manufacturing products imagianable but if consumers have no money to purchase these goods, we're still in trouble.  The economy, with all of it's problems, is a big system and SOMEONE needs to stop this shotgun approach to solving individual problems and look at what's best for the big picture.  My advice is a bottom up approach - help the consumers with jobs, health care, mortgages and I bet the outlook improves.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Debbie</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 21 Nov 2008 14:59:17 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Bigger Than Detroit</title><link>http://washingtonindependent.com/19218/bailout#comment-3924658</link><description>&lt;p&gt;If the big 3 fail, will the supply of vehicles into the market not be provided by Toyota and other manufacturers (Hyundai, Honda, BMW etc) based in the US?
