Busting the unions should be a requisite part of any bailout plan.

What union is looking for a handout? I've heard lots of CEOs whining for
help.

If Ford, GM and Chrysler go bankrupt then the unions are all SOL and the
companies are free to negotiate brand new contracts or maybe no
contracts with union labor. If the companies are smart they will move to
right to work states and screw the unions all together.

They are probably smarter than that.
They'll move the jobs to Mexico and China.
