Amount not given to auto industry: $14 billion

Amount given to banking industry: $700 billion
Number of auto industries that could have been saved with the money used to save the banking industry: 50.

Amount spent in Iraq per month: $12 billion
Number of days in Iraq that would pay for bailout of auto industry: 35 days.

2008 Federal Budget: $2.66 trillion
Percentage of Federal Budget that the requested $14 billion would have taken: 0.0052

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think we should be bailing out any businesses that make crappy products that nobody wants to buy. But the picking and choosing of who/what is worthy and who/what is not is mind-boggling.
