The real sound was made by the Bankers an Speculators who stole all the money the 1st time and then were given all the backup money they needed with virtually No stings attached as well. That was the sound of criminal noise being committed. And the Gov just allows them to keep going on as well. Innocent Companies like Chrysler got caught in the damage caused by the same criminals who stole all the money to begin with.  >:( >:( >:(

At least the bankers and speculators will spent the money on useful things like Mercedes and Porsches thus providing at some point a supply of good second hand expensive cars.  
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Innocent???

Crappy product. That why they're dying - first and foremost.
