If the Federal Reserve give them $25 Billion, by summer's end, they will be broke again, this time no money for a bailout, and they will default. This is the worst senario of all, the company will have Crashed and Burned. Also, no matter what is done, the employees won't be saved, the company has too many of them, there will be a massive firing. Also all this trouble has already caused a fear of purchasing a GM product, this will not end until the Company is on permanent solid operation (2011-2014).

Buy them another year? Ford has 7 months left.
