The only reason the automakers are in this mess is because their products weren't as good as their rivals.
In any other industry, if your products aren't good enough and you go bust, then tough! Why should the auto industry be any different? If they get a bailout what's there to stop other struggling industries from demanding the same treatment, it could all get very messy.
If the automakers do go bust, something will rise from the ashes. The US car industry will not simply vanish, more likely it will be 'rebooted' as something better and more efficent. Giving them a handout will only encourage their current behaviour.

Most of these rules are pretty good, but it does leave me with a bad taste in my mouth. It's like whoever is writing these wants to completely control his sons life in minute detail.
