I surely hope nobody takes this report seriously.

Monetizing means you have to sell for a profit (profit means no gov't subsidies to cover your losses to spruce up the balance sheet). Hyundai is back at it with 0% for 7 years for those no-income people who have no business purchasing a car. Why don't we get those giveaways on this side of the river?
