Easy-bake capitalism

[funeralcrasher]

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.

It's so much a lie.. it all depends on what is meant by "free" :). Although, I must say after almost 3 years of living in DC, my perspective on a lot of this stuff has changed a great deal.
