First Person: GM Workers Watch As Finances Dim

[Paxadzor]

hehe im glad im in sweden lol

[njattack]

GM sounded it's own death knell. It did not reinvest the American peoples money back into the U.S. Instead, it took the American peoples money and built plants in other countries.

If GM wants Americans to buy their merchandise, then, the profits are reinvested back into the U.S. i.e. plants are built here. Further, GM discriminates against Americans thus their inferior autos. GM has no mini Coooper or Smart Car equivalent.

Avoid GM at all costs. It is a terrorist organization.

If Chrysler goes down all the resellers will be impacted along with all the dealerships. And the others like FORD will not have the money to by anything from GM because the dumb ass president has not got credit moving. We are so screwed. If GM announces next week they are closing shop the markets will take a serous tumble, Today was announcing the Peso gained on the Dollar but the market closed as it was about to take another nose dive.

I see no HOPE, and no CHANGE in the near future.

Anyone who blames this on the unions is dumb and hates the poor.

[GiovannaNYC]

Its not just the unions. I have friends that work for GM. The company closes for 21/2 months every summer to prepare for the new line-up and they pay the employees 95% of their pay.  The big CEO's and Managers get paid a lot of mullah!

[neobrown81]

I feel for GM but honestly it's the aesthetics of their cars. That's why they have low sales.

[LILUCKSMO80]

NO MORE PUT IT ON MY credit card those day's are over NO more zero down NO money no buying power the USA is made up of FREE credit but the world is not going to put up with it any more the USA is in so much debt that it will Collapse in two more year's since it as no more PONZI SCHEME CALL SUBPRIME SCHEME BUT THE OTHER BIGGEST SCHEME MADE UP BY USA IS CALL FAKE Democracy No more super Power OR FREE MONEY NO MORE BIG GDP!! USA is so full of double standard

[Nickk361]

No! The real crash is only months away! The governemnt is lying about the recession and unemployment figures!

[global2012]

yeah i dont get the whole thing with theses ''american cars'' being made elsewhere seriously.whats actually made in america anymore i mean its good to buy somethings from other countries,but if the countries saudi arabia ,china cut off what we depend on them for we would be in deep shit.

[Nickk361]

As soon as Americans depend solely on foreign countries for manufacturing and imports is the day we lose control of our governent. They will jack up the prices and strong arm us politically and we will be powerless!

[global2012]

like ive said b4 america is selling peices of it self like a k-mart commercialized whore kinda harsh but thats what it is becoming.its not the america my grandfathers grewup in.its what china wants to make america to be or what saudie arabia wants us to be or mexico.its not the america,that i want it to be or could be.now im not saying that iwant it to be capitalistic or isolationist ,well maybe a little in someways but somthings needs to change.peace to the world.

[LoveTheSupremes]

Nickk361 hasn't this already happened?

[3slimdog]

Did you see what was being transported on that truck bed. SUV's. GM was told years ago to make what the people want. They didn't, and so the High and Mighty screwed it up. GM wants to push on you something you don't want. Well Its to late to listen to the consumers now. It was not the Union that busted GM, Talk to the CEO's, They got greedy, Greed only breaks the bank.

[xlioilx]

NO I HAVE A GM!!!

good thing I own it 100%

[agentbong138]

Amen. Smartest thing I have ever heard an uneducated black man say. People need to stop buying foreign and buy American made products and support our countries economy.

[starcatcher7777]

agent:

Tell me how many GM cars are actually made in the USA? LOL

Frankly the Toyota Plant in TENN is more American than GM!

LOL Concession? what $70 + an hour?

Let them go BK and let the UNION push their own cars!

[AnotherBrotherMark]

They've been it a wage dream world for years and now the working man on the street is going to hear them scream beyond all reason.

This will be big school for a bunch of people who have insulated themselves and listened to their own lies.

[GiovannaNYC]

star that $70 per/hr INCLUDES health insurance costs. Many people are unaware of that fact.

[starcatcher7777]

Giov:

I was aware of that does that also include the additional perks of free massage and blow job from the Hookers Union or is that on a Copay ?

[GiovannaNYC]

LOl You crack me up star! You're too funny

[LoveTheSupremes]

Uhh, excuse me, but General Motors is a traitor. They're not eating their own pudding. They took 50billion of our dollars and invested it into China and Brazil and CE "ho's" pockets. What's American about that? Sorry, but I'm not spending my hard earned money for a GED equivalent high school drop out to earn $70.00, to build cars that are designed to fall apart. It's not happening, and my whole family feels the same way.

[agentbong138]

Star: you are the biggest idiot on youtube, you dont even deserve this response.

Love: Are you stupid? Please do your homework before running your mouth.

[agentbong138]

Oh but you are, you can run your mouth about not spending your hard earned money on this and that, but the bottomline is that the IRS is gonna take your hard earned money and spend it on whatever the hell they want and there isnt a damn thing you or your family is gonna do about it, you ignorant piece of shit.

[starcatcher7777]

Well they should be very proud!

The Communist Unions killed the goose that laid the golden egg! .. Create the Crisis and sell the salvation!

[AnotherBrotherMark]

They killed it for sure. Their idea of middle class is way above the reality of what middle class really is and there will be squealing all the way down for the lot of them.
