A Few Questions on the Bail-Out...

Is this loan going to insure that GM, Ford, Chrysler, etc. don't make shitty cars anymore? Will this loan be able to pull Americans like me away from our love affairs with Japanese automobiles that we have owned and have served us well since we were teenagers? Not to mention, will America's love affair with German engineering and various European luxury cars disappear? Will this loan improve American students' scores in math and science, which will in turn lead to more competitive U.S. born and bred engineers that can provide the innovation necessary to make American made cars not suck anymore? I doubt it. This loan seems like more money being flushed down the toilet for the sake of supporting the gluttonous lifestyles of the crooks who got us into this mess in the first place.
