"We're from the government, we're here to help!"

The government and the current administration are moving fast as they can in a very scary direction. Are our freedoms at risk?

The government has taken ownership in major banks. They will be able to decide how to lend money and who gets it. Now the government will likely have ownership in auto makers. That will allow them to push their desire for hybrid cars on Americans by dictating what cars should be manufactured. What if they decide to add penalty taxes to non hybrid cars or foreign cars? You will be forced to drive cars you would most likely never buy. GM will likely be very sorry they took government bailout funds. The last thing any business wants is someone showing up at their office saying “we’re from the government, we’re here to help”.

How about tax payers? They will now own a large part of GM. GM is now offering to make your car payments if you loose your job. So not only to you taxpayers get to pay for your neighbor’s house you also get to pay for his car. Oh yea, you get to cover the warranty also.

Left wing liberals are trying to set pay limits and not just for executives, they are now discussing other employee levels. I wonder what the left wing actors in Hollywood will say when the government decides they can only make $300k a year. Come on. You really don’t think they should make more then a CEO who has a government mandated salary of $500k a year, do you?
