I'd prefer they let the big three land where they may, and bailout the
auto industry itself by helping some of the many startups who are
trying to develop and bring to market cars that will be the envy of
the world.

As to the first part, sounds like you're on the right side of the issue.
But
if the big 3 were out of the picture would these other companies not be
able
to raise capital in the private market?

Who are these companies? I haven't seen anything about them.



Well, I have two friends who just bought Teslas. One actually got to drive
it from the factory to the paint shop.



Really, really neat cars! I have to wonder how they'd work out when
it's twenty below and there's a foot of snow on the road. gr
