how can you tell when things are getting bad?? maybe when there are twice as many people out of work than people that still have a job.

think you missed the point dave. toy didnt get any money because their sells were still up when everything american was going down. not because they werent american. do you like ford?? ford is the only american automaker that didnt take any money this last time. why is this?? because they said that they didnt want any money from the government. this time, that is.

not sure what is going to happen. but they will fold unless this economy bounces back and the dollar increases a bit. if they fold, it will be a wee bit worse than what is going on now.
