  • Hey - GM - heres and idea....

    Make a fuel efficient car thats as reliable as Toyota or any asian auto maker - in short - make a car people want to buy - why bail you out when your execs make millions ? They're crying poor with two loaves of bread under each arm.....

  • I heard a good comment today.

    If the automakers want a bail out, they should get it from the oil companies.

    When GM killed the electronic car from its line up, they "replaced" it eventually with 3 different versions of the Hummer--supposedly under the influence (financial) of the oil companies and the Bush administration.

  • Can you imagine how many electronic cars GM would have sold these past 18 months if they kept their line of electric cars, rolled out other fuel efficient vehicles, too and didn't roll out the countless vehicles that got 15mpg or less that they've been making/adding to their line up in the past 3 years?

    Check out a documentary called "Who Killed the Electric Car"

  • actually obama said he will bail them. so, you're ascertion is very lame. the current white house is now diverting money origninally earmarked for the mortgage crises to go to the big 3. Obama...Bush...it's all the same.

  • Trust the CEO of GM to say it right: "We violated your trust by letting our quality fall below industry standards and our designs become lackluster..."

    You get less quality, BIG BOXY & BORING cars...except for the luxury models. The average cars of the type built in north america, at least, are so boring you want to take the bus. You're left wondering why they are so over-priced compared to a Honda that is higher quality & safer and sexier.

  • No innovation...no vision...no passion.

    Soundslike finnish cars.

    There is only Toyotas..or Nissans whatever, tiny cars, without style.

  • Whoa, dude! In Mexico, where I travel for business, NOBODY owes anybody a job...it's completely sink or swim. No rights, sexism, ageism, and every -ism you can think of. Nobody has confidence in their jobs and they don't buy shit so the economy is shit. The most lucrative job is being drug dealers and kidnappers. We have GPS devices implanted under our skin in case we get kidnapped...1000 kidnappings per year with 90% of those victims killed even after the ransom is paid.

  • No bailout!

    They build butt-UGLY BOXY RETRO shit...what fucking year is this? 1972? Oldsmobile? Who drives this crap?

    No innovation...no vision...no passion.

  • no way, americans are in alot of pain already, where were they to help Katrina, Let GM go to China and Japan. Keep giving CEO's millions.

  • Negative..........! NO BAILOUT !

  • NO BAILOUT !

    If the Big 3 can't produce a product that people want, and can't compete with Japan/Europe etc... then close shop.

    It's that simple - read the fine print of "Free Market".

    Why should U.S. Taxpayers keep these Dinosaurs alive?
