Because it will take less of your tax dollars to keep GM afloat than it will to support the millions of jobless folks trying to make ends meet living off government programs.

Politics aside, I'm not fan of the Dems, and think businesses should rise and fall on their own two feet. But in this case, a business falling would hurt ME, someone who is in no way connected to it. If GM falls, we go into what will be the worst recession since WWII. Saving GM is good for EVERYONE, as bad a taste that leaves in your mouth.
