[QUOTE="Gavin Allan, post: 826704, member: 60736"] The present economic problems are just a natural result of the free market correcting itself. Too many people have been cheating the system and/or too much governmental influence has led to imbalances on the market. If the government could just keep its nose out of the market and keep from trying to rescue it, things will straighten up soon enough. The rising population and pent-up demand that will build for products and services during this downtime will create opportunities and improve things. Part of the problem is the government passing laws to try to limit crime, but yet creating loopholes for lobbies and certain people to take advantage of the system. That is what has happened, and now we all have to pay for the few greedy bastards who literally stole from us. Taxing corporations and otherwise restricting production have not helped us compete against foreign interests. Yes, Caymen is right that if the big 3 would build quality cars people like at a comptitive price then they would be doing fine. However, our own government tried to shelter the Big 3 and restrict them at the same time, which resulted in impotent industry tied to quarterly profits and dependent on the government. [/QUOTE]
