GM was offered taxpayer money to help gets back on its feet. A much better alternative than GM being no longer active in the automotive industry.

As for GMAC, a lot of their problems came mostly from mortgages not cars. I sure hope GM has learned from their mistake of letting their captive finance company going too far beyond its core competence. And buying an independant company (vs buying back GMAC/Ally) seems like they have learned. Lets see how long their memory is.
Only time will tell.
