Not ALL the automakers would even qualify for bankruptcy. Ford and GM need to get out of the rediculous union deals they are into and don't need to go out of business just restructure. Strike a fair contract based on today's market. Must admit though the banks that became more hedge fund managers than financial institutions need to be out of business. Mortgage Brokers who stretched the truth, flipped numbers etc to get people qualified and out the door should be prosecuted. And lastly Barney Frank for standing up for Fannie Mae saying Republicans were being racist wanting more regulation and accountability? Have to think about that for a while.
