Question Government Auto Industry Bailout

To my fellow RL owners. It's not directly related to our beloved RL but why not ask people that I "talk to" on everyday basis?
Anyway, what do you guys think about the government auto industry (which is said too much since it's only GM and Chrysler at the moment)? I know it's tough one but would YOU do it having the authority and responsibility? I'm looking forward to some interesting responses. Come on, Tampa!

If you can't wait to drive a camel (a horse designed by committee) wait until you see the kind of vehicles GM and Chrysler will be producing under the direction of auto experts like Chuck Schumer and Barney Frank!

The big three remind me of the episode on the Simpsons when Homer built a car for his brother.

I would have not given them the money unless they merged and trimmed way down...sorry for the autoworkers up there, but the current business model just isn't sustainable.
