THIS WEEK'S BUSINESS PRESS POLL QUESTION
Log onto the Las Vegas Business Press Web site and let us hear your opinion on this week's question.
The Obama administration's rejection of General Motors' turnaround plans and its decision to force GM Chairman Rick Wagoner out was widely seen as confirmation that the White House and many members of Congress didn't think the automaker was moving fast enough to change how it did business. Many of the industry's assembly-line workers, however, were angered by the administration's tough stance and complained that middle-class workers were being treated differently than Wall Street workers. Many even sympathized with Wagoner, who they said was being treated as a "scapegoat" and "fall guy."
Do you think the Obama administration's bailout plan for the auto industry is fair compared with its Wall Street efforts?
