I like their products too, but in reality they didn't pay off the loan. It just went from one TARP fund to another TARP fund.

It makes me sick seeing and hearing that commercial when I do. The whole commercial is simply blatant propaganda in order to influence people that do not look deeper into the workings of how our new Government machine operates. It is actually turning me off from buying another GM vehicle at this point in time.

It is a way of convincing large groups of people who do not pay attention or care to understand the process behind where the money came from.

Apparently it hasn't been done enough if people still don't know the facts or the reason for the commercial.

Not me. GM has some awesome vehicles out. I would not cheat myself from having one.

You can skim through this topic. You'll learn something new perhaps.

I did learn something... There are simply two sides to the story, and until some proves GM is wrong and I've been screwed, I still stand with what I've said here. I simply love my car, and just so happen to be built by GM...

I bought my Camaro before the Government takeover. Am a proud owner of it. Remember that the current Camaro has been under development for many years before the Government takeover. I am interested in the Chevy Volt, that too was concieved under the old management, however all these tactics being used by our administration/regime is simply propaganda aimed at those less educated who follow blindly in many ways. Those that do understand what is behind the commercial and still support the way the Government runs GM as do many of the moderators of this site do so because of very strong loyalties with the company. However even thir loyalty can be broken if tactics like these continue to be used and so forth at some point in time. The great thing about our country is we all don't have to follow any leader blindly and we can all have our own opinions about issues and be able to have them and not criticize others who think differently. This issue is far larger than just a simple commercial aimed to put GM's government takeover in better light. Much deeper.

You could not possibly have read very much of the thread in a few minutes.. Trust me, take your time and read more than one page and look over the petty comments on the last page that caused the thread to be closed. You simply have to look at the facts of how the loan was paid back and you can make your own decision. I still don't believe you understand what happened behind the scenes.

I can compare this situation to a kid hearing for the first time Santa Clause is not real, and him wanting to forget what he heard in order to keep the fantasy alive. This commercial is a fantasy if you choose to believe word for word what it is telling you. Delve a little deeper into the facts of how the loan was paid off and you'll either be angry, or you won't care since any good news about GM, even if it is fabricated and untrue is ok to use since most people won't care about looking at the facts. I fall under the camp that loves the old GM, but doesn't trust the people in charge of the new one. Simple as that.

The only propaganda I hear is just these post. I think it is great that GM did not go under because the amount of jobs that would be loss would be huge. Maybe I am blinded by the fact that I use to live in a town that was built around a GM factory. And when that factory was closed basically the whole town was out of a job. Not to mention all the suppliers that were linked to the factory. So to see GM not go under and have that happen to many small American towns make me happy. Not to mention it makes me proud to buy a car that was made and engineered here in America.
