We lose $10 BILLION with a "B" and merrily go on our way, instead of getting it back from the company, which is now turning a healthy profit.

Not to mention the five billion in stimulus funds given to them. And also, wasn't some of the loan money forgiven?

What’s a billion here, a billion there... (/sarc)— it’s not their money.

“In 2011, Treasury closed the books on its $12.5-billion bailout of Chrysler and took about a $1.3-billion loss.”

They're also conveniently omitting mention of the billions lost by private investors in their bonds.
