I voted for Obama because he talked about change.  My hope was that he was talking about fixing the system so that when you became unemployed you had a safety net to fall back to.  Being able to keep health insurance, retraining, and having educational opportunities.  That's the government's job.  That's the change I'm looking for.  That's what Obama should be concerned about.

Running a car company is not the government's job and that's what would happen if a bailout happened.   I don't understand why Josh is wanting to know so much about the car industry, does he really want to get into that?  He is a much better political reporter/analyst. It'd be a shame if he wasted all his knowledge of politics for learning from square one how to run a global multibillion dollar car company.  Yeah, just like I don't expect Josh to know how to do that I don't expect Obama or anyone in our government to either.  I expect them to know how to govern, how to set policy so that others that do know how to run a car company can do so and when they fail we have the net in place so that people can move on and find new jobs.   

If we want to have electric cars then lets have a gas tax and have a rebate for everyone so people back away from using gas.   Use policy, don't try to run a car company.
