		<description>As long as they are writing the paychecks, they can have as long as they desire.  Doesn&#039;t do the American worker any good to have a global edge and they are unemployed, and can&#039;t even purchase a car, let alone food.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Merry Christmas WEBB!!</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt; Merry Christmas whiterosebuddy and JJP Fam!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Like it or not, we live in a global economy where we must compete.  We must ask ourselves, &quot;What is our comparative advantage?&quot;  Then we must be willing to exploit that advantage.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Detroit lost the advantage a long time ago.  To recapture that advantage, they will have to create a product that people can trust.  &lt;b&gt;Being unemployed and homeless are now the real, actual byproduct of the US Auto Industry&#039;s lack of innovation.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;if someone leaves you in the middle of the road year-after-year and you keep coming back to them, then that says more about &quot;you&quot; than them.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How many more second chances?  How many more bailouts will the industry need? If GMAC Financial is being converted to a holding bank, then why not convert GE Capital to a holding bank?  Why not convert Home Depot&#039;s Credit Card division to a holding bank?  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is a slippery slope.</description>

		<description>Additionally, most of the parts to put together cars were made overseas, shipped to the U.S. and assembled here.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We need to bring those jobs back and have those cars constructed well.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Cars lasted a long time once.  It&#039;s entirely okay to do it again, especially since we now have global warming.  The Europeans have been doing that for years, long after the hard years of reconstruction after WW II.</description>

		<description>Well, I actually would prefer the white blouse but you know some of us like to be more &#039;visually exciting&#039; than others.  The leggins would be black, so the red would be more of an accent...White shirt, black leggins, red shoes and the tie. That would pop....very festive&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I understand..I am not an adept descriptor of apparel.</description>
