Good post GM has no one to blame but themselves. They have allowed corporate greed an unions to turn their company upside down. Any company that supports union job pools is pathetic. How can you support allowing assembly line workers to show up and sit in a room all day and not do work and still get paid is ridiculous. We should not be kissing GM's ass like so many here believe; we r the customer. They r here to serve us. I currently have 4 GM vehicles, and I could care less if they go bankrupt. It is probably the best thing that could happen to them. Cutting the dead weight would be the best thing they could do, chapter 11 would allow them to still operate, and get thier head out of their ass. The only reason to save them is huge impact them failing would have on our economy, and the millions of innocent workers that depend on them.
