  Treasury Prepares a Bankruptcy Filing for Chrysler?
This belongs in the what in hell is going on category. How in hell does the government take the initiative to prepare a filing for a business? Could they do the same for you? Who owns the business anyway? Not the government, Chrysler turned down their money although it took $4-billion in LOANS. No the stock owners own that company and that might just be you as an individual or through your retirement fund. But it sure as hell ain't the government.

So why in hell aren't our senators, the "honorable" Mark Warner and Jim Webb speaking out against this? What in hell is happening here?
The Treasury Department is preparing a bankruptcy filing for Chrysler as a matter of “due diligence,” Senator Debbie Stabenow, a Michigan Democrat, said yesterday in an interview.

“This is very serious,” she said. “We’re coming down to the deadline.” She was among 10 Democrats from the Michigan congressional delegation who met April 22 with Emanuel and Larry Summers, director of the National Economic Council.

Chrysler, surviving with $4 billion in U.S. loans, must win concessions and create the alliance with Turin, Italy-based Fiat to qualify for as much as $6 billion more in aid.
