Yeah, we'll see that money again, but let's treat the auto companies like they're a bunch of slick con men just trying to fleece us. I'm not saying that they haven't run their companies poorly or that we should give them billions of dollars with no oversight or that we should even bail them out at all (or bail anyone out for that matter), I'm just saying: let's have a policy for this kind of thing with across the board standards. This arbitrary "let's totally throw money at this financial problem but none at that one" attitude in congress has got to go, and before anyone says anything: they all do it, Democrats and Republicans alike. This isn't a partisan problem, it's systemic and the system needs to be changed.
