Ok… the president wants to take over one sixth of the american economy… healthcare…so the questions arises, how is the government doing with the other businesses it runs?
Well, we have news on that today. Amtrak is admitting that it is losing four times the amount projected on a per ticket basis. That is… it expected to lose $8 per ticket, and it’s actually losing $32 a ticket.
Chrysler … we’re learning that chrysler, which was bailed out and foisted off on fiat, is not going to sell american, or what used to be called chrysler cars anymore. It’s going to sell fiats. Straight from italy. And in order to get even some manufacturing business chrysler is now going to its owner, the us government, and saying, hey buy our jeeps for the military. That business model is working out great. Don’t make much anymore and what you do make sell to your own owner. Nice.
Then there’s gm. It’s making some nice chevys, howie long is doing a good job pitching them. They look good against the camry and all, but why did gmac, the financing arm of general motors go to the feds today asking for another bailout… another five billion dollars?
These are government run businesses. Why should the government run healthcare?
