mark my words.. if the government does not bail out the automakers we will see a depression worse than the first.
SAVE MONEY!
i recommend putting away 10% of every dollar you earn.
lol, the government shouldn't have bailed out the banks...The banks did that so they could make a craploads of more money. They didn't really "need" it. The banks made a crapload of money, but then they started into that whole prime mortgage rate and home equity loan shit...and it all went downhill from there...
In all...I blame Bush...
hahaha, actually if you wanna blame someone blame the democrats, bush and the republicans tried to pass a bill that would ensure that banks would/could not loan money to people they knew could not afford it, and the dems shot it down. anyways. i agree that they should not have bailed out the banks. but the auto companies they have to. if all the autos fail more than a milions of people will lose their jobs. and hundreds of other businesses will fall flat. and it will be a disaster.

Maybe if they stopped making ridiculously complicated cars and made cheaper ones more people could buy them. I outright refuse to buy a new car. WAY too expensive. My $450 1993 Ford Tempo works mighty fine...

you find cars complicated?
buying a new car is the worst investment you can make, but i would spend 10k in a low milage second hand car.
