I don't think I would feel comfortable buying a product with any long-term 
committment associated with it understanding that the company who sold it to me 
was Bankrupt, had no operating capital, and was unable to service/support their 
product.....you can't tell me Bankrupcy has zero-impact on car sales.

  Actually they wouldn't be.

  They would have filed Chapter 11, gotten RID of the unions
  weighing them down, and reorganized.  Some brands would have
  gone, some stayed - in the end - the exact same thing that is
  going to happen NOW - MINUS:

  1) Government "control"

  2) Taxpayer dollars en masse.

  Something ALL the big government socialist liberals fail to comprehend:

  Capitalism, like the human spirit it's wrought of, and like the
  science of Physics - JUST IS.

  Current Government "intervention" has in fact simply been a massive
  wealth transfer from the stock/bondholders of those corporations
  and the taxpayers-at-large to the UAW.

  Nothing more, nothing less.
