That a corporation like General Motors and Chrysler LLC. could hold such sway over the livelihoods and lives of so many citizens of this country and effectivley force un- employment and possible devastation of so many people, without any recourse by them, is autocratic and unpallatible to a democratic society. In short to do what they are doing doesn't fit in our society and they should be HELD more responsible for their actions.... 61881@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 02 Jul 2009 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/history/111_HR_2750.html?rev=48951 <p>H.R. 2750 would restore the economic rights of automobile dealers.</p> <h2 id="toc4"> Detailed Summary </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to provide a detailed summary of the bill!)</p> <!--Leave in the 'summary' tags if you want the latest summary from the Congressional Research Service automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc5"> Status of the Legislation </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to update the status of the bill!)</p> <!-- Leave in the 'status' tags if you want the latest reported status from THOMAS automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc6"> Points in Favor </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to show why the bill should pass!)<br /> <!-- First editor: Go ahead and take out the sentence in parentheses, and this notice! --> </p> <h2 id="toc7"> Points Against </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to show why the bill should not pass!)<br /> <!-- First editor: Go ahead and take out the sentence in parentheses, and this notice! --> </p> 48951@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 09 Jun 2009 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/history/111_HR_2750.html?rev=48952 <p>H.R. 2750 would restore the economic rights of automobile dealers.</p> <h2 id="toc8"> Detailed Summary </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to provide a detailed summary of the bill!)</p> <!--Leave in the 'summary' tags if you want the latest summary from the Congressional Research Service automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc9"> Status of the Legislation </h2> <p>Latest Major Action: 6/8/2009: Referred to House committee.
