Every day there is more breaking news, proof Wall Street's greed is already back to "business as usual" and in denial, grabbing more and more from the new "Bailouts-R-Us" bonanza of free taxpayer cash and credits, like two-year-olds in a toy store at Christmas -- anything to boost earnings, profits and stock prices, and keep those bonuses and salaries flowing, anything to blow a new bubble. http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/Well-Great-Depression-2-2011/story.aspx?gu- - - - - id=%7BB28B49B5%2DEFD1%2D4941%2DB57E%2DA2BA1545BA09%7D The Big3 issue makes the list at #18, though they don't appear to be in any particular order. I suggest we stop adding to this list, and start removing them. Our information on this bailout issue, is being heavily influenced by some of #22, who pays some of the media lobbyists of #22, to run these expert articles in their publications! Dave8679 - I wish I were as optimistic as you are, that this will just blow over. I think this coziness between DC and the rich and powerful of this country, has done far more damage then can simply be fixed, as pointed out in the above article.

Isn't it just a question of timing

give them the bailout with strings attached. they may turn it down because they want to keep their excessive executive compensation. Chances are they will take the bailout because when your losing billions a month, exec comp is not on the top ten causes list. billions a month vs millions a year is a 1 to a hundred ratio. Give them the bailout to help get thru the tough times. Now is not the time to kill off an industry that touches 1 in every 10 americans. Three years from now when the real estate thing has blown over then GM can fail. Notice how wall street waits for an upbeat day to announce bad news they have been sitting on for weeks or months? We need to use the same strategy to get through this recession. I want my stocks to bounce back. I want my house to appreciate. I want the economy to bustle so my job is secure. I want a job waiting for my son when he graduates college. I want my health to be good. These are more important than wanting a failure of the industry I don't work in. GM will survive if gas stays at $2, they stay out of bankruptcy, the workers take concessions, the recession is shallow and short, and most important, people try their products and discover how the gap is gone.

Wow, Brenda. The funny thing is that you can't make this stuff up, otherwise you would be Steven King. I have a sign on my office wall that says 'Stress Relief - pound your head here until unconscious". Rob M.

well first off let me say 1 thing, try to avoid the dealership at all cost when trying to buy tires or questions on the suspension. i say that only because they will try to sell you things that will either: void your warrantee, cause rediculous and anoying problems that vary from noises or vibrations that are very unwanted, or just try to sell you a product that i consider is completely garbage. I can definitely help you with the situation your in. the original tires you have on the equinox is 235/65r16 which means and tells you alot of the handling capabilities and recommended perfomance of your vehicle. The size is the description of you tires and it is broken down like this: "235" is the section width of the tire, or how wide your tires are in mm. "65" is the percent of 235 which is the profile of the tire, how tall the tire is from the rim. And last but not least, "16" is the rim size. If you look in the door jam, it gives you a recommended tire size and the size of your spare. What you have on your equinox is what you want to stay with when you get snow tires. i can tell you off hand that the dealer was trying to sell you tire just to make money because they went down 2 sizes to 215 and 225 but increased you side wall height. I personally would never go down sizes but it is possible. The only consequence is you lose traction easier due to less contact on the road because the tire is skinnier. What i recommend is searching for the same size you have already in a snow tread. recommended brands: pirelli, bfgoodrich and the high priced Michelin. (in order of lowest price and least perfomance to highest price to best perfomance). Like i said, avoid dealership unless it has to do with engine or transmission or anything with powertrain.... should be warranteed. Hope that helped, feel free to ask questions. Thank you for a reply
