Ford asked for that loan. You better go do some more research. FYI. Straight from Ford reps them selves. They needed that loan! Just like GM and Chrysler. It was to bail out their unions.

I'm not condoning the stock repayment... I'm not the one who approved it. Govt. Appointed officials did. You are barking up the wrong tree.

PS. Ford also sold the USA most profitable steel mill to the Russians. Which again is also fact.
