Easy-bake capitalism

  1. Ring up your favorite lobbying firm and kindly give them a ride to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave (Repeat after 08 Elections)
  2. Wine & dine select legislative VIPs (Repeat after 08 Elections)
  3. Stir in billions of dollars of gubment handouts.

Voila! Instant debt elimination & a fresh clean start for another global corporation!

GM's path to leave Chapter 11 apparently cleared, despite a last-minute appeal from plaintiffs in an Arizona product liability case against GM involving a Chevrolet Malibu. ...Once the world's largest and most powerful automaker, GM will become a leaner and greener company, cleansed of debts and burdensome contracts that nearly dragged it into liquidation.

Free market capitalism is a lie.

Well, taxpaying folk wouldn't get so much... if you divide 700 bill among all taxpaying citizens it comes out to a few thousand each. Barely enough to buy a used car much less a new one. There were better uses for the stim money no doubt.. but giving it all to corporations who already have their hand in the till is just criminal.
