The road to socialism

Bailout for GM?  What's next?

 

There is talk in Congress at this time that the next round of bailouts for business across America may be on it's way.  Well, the next business that is "too important to let it fail," is GM, General Motors.  Now, I won't say that GM is a small business.  It may have been at one time, but because of the free market, GM has grown to be such a large corporation and so successful in years past.  Well, who knows how much is about to be spent by Congress to bail them out next, but here's a list of other companies (and this is not a full list), if counted by the number of people employed by the company, who would be more important than GM:

 

GE

AT&T

IBM

Target

Sears

Wal-Mart

McDonald's

 

So, if we bailed out the banks and next we bail out big manufacturing (or big auto, if you prefer), what's next?  Well, it looks like it could be big retail, big phone or big burger.  How much will be spent on our behalf?  How  much can this country afford to continue down this path to socialism?

 

Fight back.  Tell Congress not to bail out big auto and let the free market take care of itself.
