    Let them fail!

    I'd say nothing.  I'm not sure what the employees of Olds and Plymouth got...if anything. The Big Three seem to really want money handed to them, but it doesn't look like they want anything to do with helping the people they let go. But I couldn't really tell you what they would do, I may just...

    Let them fail!

    They'd still be around for a while sure.  But there is still no gaurantee it will keep them here.  It would be more of a way to buy time, instead of being a cure. Some people say the merger of GM and Chrysler will save them 10 billion a year.  GM is spending 1.5 billion a month as is, and...

    Let them fail!

    Rumours are flying around about talk of a merger between GM and Chrysler.  The Nissan-Renault group is also looking at Chrysler. The thing about a merger between GM and Chrysler, is that GM would be the one with most of the wealth and power.  If a merger were to take place, there would a whole...

    Let them fail!

    In the 70s and 80s the Japanese were making what they were advertising, Cheap vehicles.  And cheap often comes with problems.  They improved quickly though, and their strategies worked (at least for Honda). I agree, Not necessarily bad.  But they are playing a mean game of catch up. Again, you...

    Let them fail!

    By "My experience", maybe I should have put every single person I know who drives.  Please, don't patronize me, I did nothing to offend you. You don't know what I know, and I don't pretend to know much.  So how would one know if I "know what I am talking about or not"?  Just because someone is...

    New Ontario Laws for Young Drivers

    Sorry for the very late reply. This is to Michael O'Leary. I personally cannot explain the insurance rates.  But I can tell you that most of the problems today stem back to previous court cases, and the Bob Rae provincial government trying to change the way the insurance companies did things. ...

    Let them fail!

    Well, Retiredgrunt45...My experience with the different nationalities of cars supports the hype. Every american that anyone I know owns has problems or is just a POS, and every Japanese car is going just fine.  With the exception of a co-workers almost new Corolla. My family used to have a...

    New Ontario Laws for Young Drivers

    I have seen countless "experienced" drivers in the ditch or pulled over so far this season, and I have yet to see a "young" driver in the same situations during that same time. Yet, somehow it is all the youngsters driving too fast and causing all the problems...BS.  I havent seen a young male...

    Name This Photo!!! - The AFV Recognition Thread

    How many wheels does the model in the images have? I'll assume it is 8, which would make it the GPV Colonel or Captain. And if I am correct, forgive me, but I am currently pictureless.

    Radical rubber band gun

    Exactly.  I'm sure I know some teachers/instructors who would like to have one of those.

    Georgia and the Russian invasions/annexations/Lebensraum (2008 & 2015)

    OK.  Thank you.  I see what you meant now. But, I being ignorant of the Russia economy can't really say anymore. However, does anyone know what percentage of the Russian GDP or Income comes from exports and investment?

    Georgia and the Russian invasions/annexations/Lebensraum (2008 & 2015)

    Kasparov I know, and he was ****ed by Putin.  So I can see how his opinion could matter.  Depending on what angle you wanted from him. People who are pro-Putin and them, well yes...they wouldn't care, and would disagree. Like Stalin...Zhukov may have given him good reviews...but a lot of other...

    Georgia and the Russian invasions/annexations/Lebensraum (2008 & 2015)

    Why do you people put so much stock (ha!), and trust in the Russian economy considering for about 20 (consecutive) years during the USSR days the economy was completely false? Not a good track record, and not much of a reason to trust the Russian government when some of the members were party...

    Georgia and the Russian invasions/annexations/Lebensraum (2008 & 2015)

    Banks in the United States are formed, and managed different than they are in Canada, or Russia.  Different governmental controls and input. That could be one reason the USA has seen the bankruptcies.  I forget the details on how it all works though.  So sadly...I am quite useless. Coming from...

    Joining Reserves - 90% Deaf

    No one can say that for sure but the personnel doing the medical. Sometimes it seems to be a case by case basis, and although some of the people in the thread may be doubtful, we all encourage you to try.  You never know until you try. Like they said, worst case, you get a full  free medical...

    The 2008 Canadian Election- Merged Thread

    I dunno Vern...At least in Ontario, school discipline can be sorely lacking.  I was assaulted with a weapon in halls during one of my years in Highschool and the offender got a twenty day suspension. Then a month later he was caught drunk at school (and with alcohol in his backpack) and again, a...

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    My mistake.  That makes absolute sense, it's just too bad the staff was getting criticised for that.  90% of the time I found it deserved.  However you're right, I'm sure the staff got tired of it. My apologies. CADPAT44:  Like was said before, you have lots of time.  And such decisions don't...

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    The Directing Staff will most likely be around soon to "direct" you to sources of information on this very site to read for yourself. But before that: You have at least three years to think about that.  You're in no rush.  No one can answer that question for you.
