"US Government bails out General Motors and Chrysler with $17bn loan
The US government has saved General Motors and Chrysler from imminent bankruptcy with a $17.4bn (£11.6bn) lifeline loan package in an unprecedented move that will pile pressure on the British government to follow suit."
Uh oh, the UK is in on it too, now.

Honestly, I think we all knew this was coming.
"Hey we need some money guys, we're failures."
"Oops, big bonus checks wasted all that money. Got some more? No? Well, shit, we're going to have to file for bankruptcy then. And sorry, no, you can't read any of our reports til the last minute deadline."
- Bonus checks are a drop in the bucketukit
- Sure, but a great example of their mismanagement.********

The big irony in all of this is that... like 10 years ago GM opted to buy 20% of FIAT, but then fiat did quite bad and when it was the time for GM to honor the contract they drop out, paying FIAT loads of money (so stated the contract) with that money FIAT got back in shape and now bought 35% of Chrysler and was about to buy a Opel (GM).

No, the big irony is that they used kept insisting for years and years and years that they knew what they were doing, they were smarter than everyone else, and they couldn't change their winning formula, or drop any or their illustrious brands that had so much caché in the market.
