Replying to: iluvmysephia1 (Nov 17, 2008 6:23 pm) Well that's not true either because GM, still sells by quite a large margin more automobiles than Toyota, here in the U.S. last time I checked !!! Should the U.S. be involved in throwing hard-earned tax monies away? Invest $25 billion now or lose $160 Billion in 3 years thus the choice is yours !!! Poor planning and management has equalled big-time trouble and throwing a very expensive Band-Aid at this while a lot of peope in all trades and industries are also losing their jobs isn't making good common sense to me. I would throw more than $25 billion at the problem. I would give the Big 3 a $100 Billion Dollars and with that money with government oversight I would award them contracts to build locomotives, military equipment, etc..... -Rocky |

Seems the Democrats do not want to use the money allocated in the Energy bill to bail out the Big 3. Bush has said he did not want to spend all the money in the bailout. He will leave over half for Obama to decide. Obama makes the decision which voters he will pay back. GM folding will be forgotten in a year. Except for the suckers with their cars that were supposed to be covered by warranty. NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD BUY A GM VEHICLE NOW. Ford will probably come out stronger as will Toyota and the other transplants. |

Replying to: rockylee (Nov 17, 2008 9:52 pm) Those salaries and bonuses are even more reason to let GM DIE. Wagoner sees no reason to change the top tier managers. Gettlefinger sees no reason for the UAW to give concessions. GM cannot make it without outside cash to pay these high costs. Let them go. And I do not believe for one second that GM is that important to the US economy. Barely a blip on the GDP. Not even one half of one percent. You are living in the past as is most of the UAW members. You watch too much worthless TV. It is in Obama's court now. Bush handed it over to him. He does not want to deal with that bunch of losers in the 110th Congress.

rockford I have seen so many dull looking huge pick-em-up trucks from GM right now and so few affordable green products that I am of the mindset that GM can just fall in to a huge Midwest protoplasm omeba of Detroit Piston muck. The Silverado you see to the right in the ad has slowed us all down for long enough. That gravytrain has sailed. Your GDP numbers are inflated because they're made by a UAW member, aren't they? The bailout is dead. I agree with gagrice on this one. Dead. Done. Cya-Nara. Cya-woudn't want to have ever been ya. Over. And out. rockylee...is it true that Chev really wants $46,995 for the 2010 Chevy Volt? Please tell me that's an Internet misnomer, man.
