Isn’t it odd that the labor issue was the reason Fiat did not move forward with the merger, just last Thursday?

3 days later – and now a mandate from the failures in gov, led by Bambi and that miserable corporate failure Nardelli at the helm of Chrysler…

I have asked a financial friend to get a hold of the merger, as soon as it is available – he will be looking for guaranteed provisions for Fiat, like options, warrants, prefferred stock vs common ownership, etc.

Oh – and how did that Diamler-Chrysler merger go just a few years ago? After seeing their brand and sales get hammered to Pinto levels – Mercedes divested ASAP and are gradually regaining the premium brand they were known for…

“The deal includes Fiat, the Italian automaker with which Chrysler was ordered by the government to form an alliance before Thursday.”

I’m wondering out loud how much money the o-blah-blah gang is getting from Fiat in exchange for them “ordering” Chysler to “form an alliance” with them.

When they did that, imagine how empowered Fiat got and how weakened Chrysler’s bargaining position became.

I haven’t seen a thing yet that this o-blah-blah batch has done that has any positive merit; and .. all the while that very serious things are happening that threaten our very survival.

This Trojan Horse presidency and administration is horrendous!

“Will we ever get our country back?”

No. Not as it was constituted when TAO took office…
