    Whats your point, Chump? If you think it's a great investment feel free to buy yourself some GM stock.
    It would have been a great idea the past two days.

    lol PR disaster

    If gas hits $5 as some are projecting GM is gonna take it right in the ass. They are only making money on trucks and SUV's.

    "To reemploy Americans, we have to do something to bring factories back here"

    the free market globalization has already solved that problem of expensive US workers with their salaries+benefits, worker safety, environmental protections. UCA finds all that is non-existent/cheaper overseas, and the jobs won't be coming back, ever.

    btw, even US workers, eg at Ford, are being hired as 1/2 the salaries of current/older Ford workers, further reducing/impoverishing the middle class

    GM stock has been dropping steadily since going public again (down from 40 to 22) and is a currently a couple of points off it's 52 week low.
    Ouch.

    But what does anyone really expect? They continue to use the same failed business model. Bailouts do not work. They needed bankruptcy restructuring.

    GM/GMAC got restructured pretty damn deep, eg, dumping pension obligations on taxpayers, which was like $1500/car.

    Chump, you are such an ignorant ass at times. If you think you can time the market on two day jumps and bumps then put you money where your mouth is...

    I never said I could, although in hindsight there is a logic to it.

    I just enjoy watching you try to put a negative spin on the stock price increase of the past two days after what you called a PR NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!111!!!1!!!!!

    What do you call it when their premier new technology pimped as the second coming of Jesus catches on fire and they STILL don't know why? Recalling every one they ever made just to add more steel around the batteries because they don't know what else to do isn't exactly a GOOD thing...

    Calling it a PR Nightmare for GM is totally accurate.

    Nah, no one who actually owns the car had this happen. That would have been worse, but not even in that case would it have been an outright disaster.

    And what else would need to be done? All they need to do is keep coolant from coming into prolonged contact with the battery circuits.

    don't forget the death squads to go kill the battery every time one gets in a wreck...

    Sorry Chump but the truth apparently hurts. A so called electric car that goes 35 miles on a charge and costs $41,000 is not exactly something to be proud of and that was BEFORE the fires. Apparently there are only 8000 people in the entire US that disagree with me and put their money where their mouth is.

    So Chump, are you gonna buy a Volt?

    LOL I currently drive a Chevy truck. I'm just confident that giving GM to the UAW will be the death of GM.

    My next truck will be a Ford.

    That's a pretty ty reason to hate on a car tbh.

    I'd go with death squads. But that's just me.

    Making a current event post in a political forum and discussing it doesn't mean i'm losing any sleep over it. Why do YOU care?
