If it helps sell G,M,vehicles and save or even create American jobs then absolutely yes. All the world's car manufacturers are receiving State aid to ensure their survival and success after the recession is over. The American car manufacturing base is essential and will produce many times over in profit the temporary tax-payers aided assistance. ADDITION>>>Your question reeks of the resentment of an anti American trouble maker. Despite the job destroying antics of the left wing unions G.M, 'got it right' for decades and made an absolute fortune in corporation tax for the Government and the "tax paying citizens of America" as well as creating thousands of jobs, both in the U.S.A, and abroad. Now that, for a number of reasons, it needs continuing help to survive it would be short sighted foolishness in the extreme to abandon such a long established Icon of American engineering greatness. Additional addition,>>>Well my dear boy if you are all choked up with emotion,just let it out. Have a good cry and your Mommy will wipe away your tears. You look like a 'big girl's blouse' who would burst into tears at the least thing, like if someone stole your lollipop or give you got a good, well deserved slap across your ugly face with a wet haddock. What's wrong son, having a little tantrum because someone disagreed with you? It's not your job on the line there boy. The degree of pretentious 'smart alec' rhetoric on such subjects is always in direct proportion to the distance from the problem. Besides, when was the last time you paid taxes?It's always a pity that the people who really know how to run the Country are hairdressers or taxi drivers. I don't know which one of these you are boy but you look as though you should pay a visit to the barbours.Do you dye your hair boy? I suppose the term boy is an oxymoron in your case. "Hey below", Sir,(that's definitely an oxymoron),when you're feeling hungry you can always eat your Japanese car. What a bunch of unpatriotic, left wing fifth columnist wimps this leading question has attracted.
