Why bail out American automotive industry?
Bill Harding| Letter to the Editor
Tuesday, November 18, 2008

The automobile industry bailout is a horrible idea!

I am dead set against the use of my tax dollars to bail out any privately held or shareholder-owned company.

The United States automotive industry created its own problems, and it's up to them to fix things. If they can't, well, too bad.

I say let's allow the Asian and European manufacturers to have our entire market. Heck, they make practically all of our electronics, so why not our vehicles?

One more thing. We as a country should immediately cease all foreign aid.

Clearly, we can no longer afford to bail out any foreign countries from their screw-ups.

Bill Harding, Evans
