The Big Three auto makers, Ford, GM, Chrysler : Should they be bailed out. (tunes, quote)

It's hard for me to have a real opinion on this issue. I work at a bank so all day I hear people talking about the economy. The logical side of me agrees with the "capitalism" argument. This is America and it's not the goverment's place to dictate which company fails and which company is okay to help out. The humanitarian side of me wants everyone to have everything they want or need. I had a customer today who told me that, at his age of 56, this was his first time ever having unemployment. He worked for a tool and die company for 29 years. They went of business this year because GM owes them a couple million dollars that they aren't getting. This hard working man lost his job because of an entire other company.
