#1 Bailouts are dumb. His cocky "Chrysler is back" commercial after the first bailout says it all.

#5 Lee had a very good run.

#7 @ #5 - Yes, they did, like seven years ahead of schedule. HOWEVER, the government has no business bailing out private industry (as it did for "Government Motors" not long ago).
