Chrysler Bailout

Let's take a look at why Chrysler is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Chrysler got $4 billion from TARP. It wasn't enough. They asked for another $5 billion. Obama said "No!". Chrysler will close 789 dealerships affecting 40,000 jobs.

This map shows the names and locations of the 789 dealers Chrysler plans to close, about a quarter of the 3,200 total.

Here is what I see from Chrysler's recent world domination strategy and costs.

The bailout money is going OFFSHORE!
