Including the more than $20 billion that has already been spent to prop up G.M., the government will provide G.M. at least $50 billion to get the company through Chapter 11, people with direct knowledge of the situation said Tuesday. By some estimates in Detroit, tens of billions beyond thatamount may be required.

**************

Come Monday, us, taxpayers will pay 70 billion for a 70% interest in GM. Better known as OBAMA Motors.

Are there any SANE people left out there working for us?

Sad really, maybe we could rename this socialist country to Obama Nation after all it is an obamanation of what our country stands for and the very definition of a free market economy.
