@pauljones: It is a commonly held belief that WWII put us back to work and ended the depression. But think about it in the abstract and see if that holds water.

@tomlewis: The better question is how many people are living without medical care. Health insurance is just a payment mechanism.

@pauljones: Not the world war either. The idea that borrowing money to build stuff and ship it to Europe to get blown up is good for the economy is yet another falacy. When the war was over and the government eased off a little is when the economy recovered.

@pauljones: Sorry. I missed the part in the constitution were we are supposed to be taxed at confiscatory rates to reward failure. Where do you get that we are one nation and we are colectively responsible? We were intended to be a Federation not a Nation. So that if one state, let's say California, wanted to become a…

@pauljones: What is this we that you speak of?

@jodark: Thomas Sowell is amazing. I will be finishing Economic Facts and Falacies today and it was mind blowing. I read everything of his that I find.

@elwood: First off, so they delayed their bankrupcy by 6-8 months. So what. Is there any difference that a 6-8 month delay makes the bankrupcy better.

@Triborough: Well if you can't really do anything; how can you do it wrong?

@Motor_Yakuza: Are you sure it isn't on the Corsa platform. I would like to see a mini-MPV based off this car (Opel Meriva sucide doors and all).

@Timtoolman, now with power tools!: I heard they were going to be badged as Eagles. No wait now I am hearing they will be badged as the Imperial brand.

@Murilee Martin: I thought the feeder league was the Champ Car Atlantic series now that Champ and Indy "Merged"???!?

If that is Mike Wazowski; how big is Sully?

@stoke has a JDM banana: When I lived in Baltimore a used car dealer had one for sale. It was advertized as something to the effect of Chevy S10 chasis and 8 passenger seating.

Call me crazy but delete the rear doors altogether and put conventional front doors on it and it would make a decent car.

@negative-ground: You are kidding, right? It isn't Suzuki Dirt Ramp but what were you expecting?

@jark: Funny when Canadian beer was mentioned I start thinking Molson or Labbatt. I think of La Fin du Monde as Quebec.

@Jo Schmo: I counted at least 6 cars taking serious damage. How did the one car catch on fire?

@discontinuuity is now meme-free: Forgot to mention that it had the chronic peeling blue paint.
