Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Goodbye Chrysler:



April 29 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama plans to announce tomorrow that Chrysler LLC will be placed into Chapter 11 bankruptcy, leading to an alliance with Italian automaker Fiat SpA, people involved in the matter said.

An alliance with Fiat is a literal death-knell for Chrysler or, as I quantify it, the Euro blind leading the American blind.

I had a Fiat once many moons ago. It was a piece of crap.

EYO: thanks for visiting, and thanks for commenting! And yes, a buddy of mine had a red Fiat 128 which was possessed the THE squishiest, WORST manual transmission in the civilized world.

Fiat controlling Jeep. Kind brings a new probability to being stuck further out. Now not only the ability for you to get all 4 stuck but the probability the thing will just quit on you even if you arent stuck in the mud.

Maybe some Chrysler "quality" will pervade Fiat.

Fiat! The letters stand for Fix It Again Tony.

BHO is systematically taking America apart, including the automotive industry.

I wonder what the labor negotiations are going to be like with the UAW sitting on both sides of the table.

Fiat - poor quality.

Chrysler - poor leadership.

Fisler - a company making poor quality cars under poor leadership!
