Chrysler is being taken over by Fiat

The best Headline pun since the Clinton Herald in 1965 ran with "Yanks Beat Off Cong Troops". President Obama is somehow now the supreme executive officer of Chrysler and has declared that Chrysler is to be taken over by Fiat.
Of course, they mean the auto company, but I prefer definition 3) "an authoritative or arbitrary order" or definition 1)"a command or act of will that creates something without or as if without further effort". From the Latin for let it be done.
Yep, that about sums it up.

Bailout the Big Three? Or the UAW?

Normally, when I give Ford or GM money, I get a car in return. The union guys go in and take the stockholders tools and materials and make me a car. I have always heard how lazy they are, how everything is "not my job" and "union rules won't allow that." I have also heard of them getting paid for make-work and getting 95% pay for lay-offs.
This seems to be the ultimate destination of the game. Now we just send them money and they do not have to do anything. They have to make no cars. They just get my money. That's it - the whole transaction is "Give me your money or else". I feel like I am being robbed at gunpoint, hands in the air.
