Someone deserved a talking to...
I thought this was so ironic. The CEO of Chrysler, Ford and GM met with lawmakers last week to seek financial help and ask for bail-out money. EACH one of the CEO's flew his own private jet to Washington. They have not disclosed actual costs but they have estimated that each flight cost approximately $20,000.00!!! Apparently, they got a real talkin' to and pretty much were sent home (on their private jets of course) with their tails between their legs. One representative made the comment, "It's like coming to a soup kitchen in a top hat and a tuxedo." I loved it! This may be wishful thinking but hopefully the government will be able to strong-arm them into really stepping up the production of green vehicles. We'll keep our fingers crossed. Here's the article I read if your interested. There is also link on the sidebar to the video clip of Michael Moore's interview on Larry King discussing the auto bailout. I thought he made some great points.
