BONUS FACT OF THE DAY

Ford which is smaller than GM and did not get a bailout, is doing almost as good in producing net profit as GM which received a bailout of which the government is still down billions of dollars (certainly when you include the special $45 billion tax write off):

GM Q4 2011 – $N/A =      Ford $1.1B

GM Q3 2011 – $1.7B =     Ford $1.6B

GM Q2 2011 – $2.5B =     Ford $2.4B

GM Q1 2011 – $3.2B =     Ford $2.6B
