For years I wanted to support U.S. car makers, via buying their vehicles—especially after 9/11. I was feeling all patriotic and shit and wanted to support domestic car companies. However, I changed my mind, because their fucking cars sucked. Mind you, they still do—suck that is.
That asshole, Rick Wagoner from General Motors Corporation [[GM]] , should get the electric chair, not some government bailout. It’s very convenient for him to blame fixed costs, such as workers, for GM’s hardships. But the fact of that matter is they make bullshit cars—very low end.
Now both General Motors Corporation [[GM]] and Ford Motor Company [[F]] are trying to extort our lawmakers, demanding 50 billion in funding. Are they fucking nuts?
Let them fold. Take the 50 billion and create a new industry for the soon to be unemployed factory workers. This is preposterous!
I hear people talking about a potential “industrial crisis,” should the big three fold. Let it be!
If businesses were that stupid to peg themselves to idiotic American car makers, they deserve to fold too. I am sure HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD. (ADR) [[HMC]] and Toyota Motor Corporation (ADR) [[TM]] will fill the void.
Much to my chagrin, [[FXP]] is receiving multiple homo hammers, based upon nothing. That’s nice. And, [[EEV]] is gapped down in sympathy.
Despite the possibility of this rally extending, seeing FXP down $19 may be too much for me to resist. It is a small position of mine; but I am tempted to bulk up here.
UPDATE: I bought 5,000 [[FXP]] @ $83.55
