I think it's called capitalism... nice article.

"At General Motors Co., sales fell 20 percent to 245,550. GM said its
inventory levels hit an all-time low of 379,000 during August, but
like
Ford
will be replenished this month thanks to production increases.
GM vehicles like the Chevrolet Aveo subcompact, the Cobalt sedan and
Equinox
crossover got a lift from the clunkers program. No GM vehicles made
the
closely watched list of top-10 Cash for Clunkers sales, but GM's share
of
clunker purchases were second only to Japan's Toyota Motor Corp."

Capitalism or 'budding socialism'?


Several companies competing would be capitalism. Do you dispute this?
Seems
to me the CfC program actually did some good.

I see the government competing with Ford. Is that what you mean?

I see an industry that is generally struggling, with GM's numbers
improving
slightly. Competition is competition. I don't see anything wrong with
that.


When do you suppose the government will start it's dirty fighting,
i.e., subsidizing even further so that Ford prices can be grossly
undercut?

No idea. Perhaps you can let us know and we'll be suitably outraged?

I would assume no outrage. If the pattern holds, the response would
be, "Well, so what, Bush hurt the economy and Obama is just trying to
fix it."


If you "assume," you make an ass out of u and me.

All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking.
