Maybe they could work for walmart? Target? Maybe other Auto manufacturers? Maybe start a business? It seems kind of interesting that people wonder where the Auto workers will find their next job, but not the other millions of people who where pushed out of their jobs.

I believe we still have a NURSING crisis in this country. Hospitals will even pay for schooling for that $45,000.00(in Texas) a year job. But nursing is a hard job.

Maybe we need a bailout for people loosing their jobs due to companies pushing their loyalties to overseas labor.

Look at the mills in Ohio. Many of then struck themselves right out of a job.

Industry always changes. Many people get creative when needed. They find ways to make a living. Look at how many blacksmiths and other professions where pushed out of business when the automobile became a hit.

Matter of fact I just read on the internet where there is a LACK of qualified vets for horses and cattle in the north.

I also read where a migrant worker with nothing is now a brain surgeon. (Readers Digest a few months back)

SCHOOL. It's out there for a reason.

Madison man is there anything you can post that is actually positive in America.You come off like one of those guys who just cant wait to hear some bad news about America so you can post it in this place.Your posts just ooze Anti American hate for this country.

As far as the automotive bailout...Nothing would make me happier then to see all those fat cigar smoking CEOs and their business go under after making all those huge SUVs which no doubt tripled the consumtion of oil over the years and got us into the mess we are into today.But I have to look at reality.Not only would 5 million people loose there jobs,the government would loose billions of dollars in taxes,and all car manufacting would be replaced by overseas corporations.Getting replacement parts for American cars already sold would be nothing less that a total catastrophe since there wouldn't be any being made.Police cars,fire trucks,postal service trucks,UPS trucks,etc.Once these cars broke down or needed a part there wouldn't be any.

Also if you think you are somehow smarter than the people who have attended Harvard and Stanford who make these decisions for the government you might want to look at your own education background.They know what they are doing.
