You know you’ve been hanging out with the dog too much when you are watching Meet the Press and you suddenly yell, “No, Speaker of the House! Don’t bail out the auto industry! Bad! Bad bailout! No.”

We might have a better economy if someone could smack major politician’s noses with rolled up newspapers.

I don’t know… economics is not my thing, but there are an awful lot of working-class people who depend on the auto industry for jobs. I think the thing to do is bail out the companies, and then withdraw treats and affection from the higher-ups until they stop being such douchebags.

I think ‘withdraw treats and affection” might be my new threat against anyone or anything that stands in my way.

I agree that I don’t want the working-class people to lose their jobs. I don’t know a lot about economics either, but I think the people at the top of those companies should no longer be in charge. I think they should file for chapter 11 bankruptcy– perhaps with some mitigated government funding or some sort of government backing to prevent them from collapsing. I just dislike the idea of throwing good money after bad, particularly when we all know those jerks are holding out on us an they’ve had flying cars what run on pure water designed and ready to go for years.
