Stand by and let our industrial might go bankrupt, fall into the hands of potential enemies?

US industry GM, Ford, Chrysler, Steel. etc were critical to America surviving and winning WW ll, Korea, etc.
These factories could be bought by Muslims with our money, then the doors shut, workers laid off, the plants dismantled and junked or shipped out of the country. With no defense left for the country, how will we feed all the poor? And stop the barbarians from sacking the country?

Proposed solution for US automakers (alternative to bailout)?

This is what I think about the automaker bailout:
The big 3 need to throw away old baggage of inefficient operations, high executive pays, and high union powers.

My suggestions are:

- Declare bankruptcy (only option to cut all ties with inefficiency)
- Merge operations and create a new company
- Sell off plants to foreign automakers to create more capital(to Hyundai, Kia, or any company that is looking to have production in US), this way workers can still keep their jobs but just with different bosses

What is your take?
I believe they are trying to go green but they are late compared to Japanese manufactures.
If an restructuring was to happen, I say screw it with the half-ass green-wannabe hybrids and just go green. Set goals to produce electric, bio-fueled cars and phase out existing cars.

And as far as capitalist governments go.. well.. the companies are US companies..

The cost of bankruptcy to the economy and the auto workers and the auto industry is astronomical.. which i understand, but without an revolution will things get better?

Any suggestions for the problem?
