Right or wrong... GM Owes us, the people, not one penny...

Now more than ever they should be profitable. And a 48K ZL1 will not be profitable. Which will in turn diminish the government's investment in GM.
Again, I'll disagree with that completely just on the basis on a lack of understanding, IMO, of exactly who the government is. That guy in Washington is called a representative for a reason, he isn't the government, we are. He simply represents the interest of the government, which would be us, or at least he is supposed to represent our interests.

I already covered what I think GM owes above, and I think it not a whit unreasonable.
