Suddenly, I'm a capitalist.

So I've been brainstorming in my head how we can stimulate the economy, save jobs, and not reward the big 3 car companies for their miserable products and overstuffed organizations. So what if instead of putting the whatever-gazillion dollars into these companies, we let them fail and offer the money to a start-up with an idea of developing cars that run on a clean technology. Let's even say they could then utilize the skilled workforce that would otherwise be unemployed, and maybe they could use the factories that would otherwise stand idle. It's risky, but is it any riskier than letting these companies throw good money after bad when they clearly don't seem interested in making the changes that need to be made? Just a thought.
