CHAT LIVE with a Big 3 auto exec

A group of auto executives proudly demonstrate the clean, cheap "engine-less" car.

Executives from the Big 3 automakers returned to Washington today to once again plead their case before Congress and beg for upwards of $34 billion to help them stay in business. Among their promises were pledges to refinance debt and cut executive pay. But some lawmakers remained skeptical of a bailout, suggesting that such a move would be a heavy burden on taxpayers and that the auto companies should simply be allowed to go bankrupt.

Congress just broke for lunch and we've got a major auto exec online right now, just waiting to chat with you. Click below, and enjoy the kind of refreshing candor you've come to expect from American business leaders.
