The automotive industry (GM and Chrysler in particular)

"I think the irony … is that I actually would like to see a relatively light touch when it comes to the government," he said Tuesday in a White House interview.
I think the irony is that this guy actually gets away with saying this when the facts are the exact opposite of his words. That he says this stuff and doesn't bust out laughing is scary as well.

He actually believes what is being done is "for the greater good".
That is what is most frightening to me.
