To save or not to save GM and Ford?

Well, it looks like experts are estimating that these 2 giants might only have enough cash until the end of the year. They are looking for a $25B loan from the government....well....our tax dollars. What do you all say? Should they do it? If so....what industry is next?

It seems like Ford might make it now, but GM and Chystler are toast. Unbelievable. To think that these giants are falling. We really are entering a new era.
