Oh, sorry didn't know we were going to the exact number.

What do you think it is?

It is just a bit south of 100,000 but too bad you quit reading.

Point was quite correct though.......................unless you think we ever had a military as large as 70 million.

When I grew up in Flint, there were 40,000 emplyees in Genesee County alone.

Also what everyone also forgets was the 1,000,000 retirees and spouses that were dependant on GM for penson and benefits. That impact would have been devastating as well.






Pssssst, you might want to check GM's global employment numbers. I'm guessing you were counting GMNA only.
