According to the scorecard, taxpayers are still 2 Billion in the hole on Chrysler:

Not as dumb as the GM bailout. Between General Motors AND old GMAC (General Motors Acceptance Corporation, now Ally Financial), adding up the dispersed, returned and revenue to govt, the taxpayers are still over 38 billion in the hole, and will never be close to being made whole again.

Much adoo ab out nothing in my opinion.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?
