You know, I was surprised at how many czars there were. WHat surprised me even more was that the HUGE increase in 'czars' didn't start with Obama.

This is another piece of evidence that we need a viable 3rd party in this country. You can say I'm "blaming Bush" but my intent is to show that the Republicans are just as bad.

Now, about the bailouts, well, once again, Chrysler has paid back their bailout YEARS early. On top of that, the government is divesting itself of GM stock. Though some complain that too much stock was given 'to the unions that destroyed GM'. Funny how an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) is praised in other places because it gives the employees a sense of ownership. I'm thinking that the UAW's ownership stake will keep them a little more sane than in the past. Hopefully the complete WAR of union vs. management can be calmed down. I'm not saying it's going to be like Southwest Airline's relationships with IT'S unions, but we all know there was room for improvement.
