I'm not in favor of taxpayers bailing out private companies, but I don't have an alternative. all i do know is that if the big 3 go under, Michigan dies. Detroit's pretty much dead already, Flint's a zombie (but we knew that), Ypsi's on life support, Ann Arbor is still waiting for a pacemaker after Pfizer pulled out last year, and the rest of the state makes/grows the stuff the inhabitants of the Mound of Venus spend their money on. dead
it's not just about those companies -the network of businesses and livelihoods supported by them and their employees is huge and underlies the whole economy of the state. We're doomed, doomed I tell ye!
