Why should GM (read government motors) care or be compassionate.

If they drive away or kill their customers because of a faulty product, so be it, the government will just bail them out again.

No worries about going out of business for them.

I’m still fascinated at the Government’s sale of its GM stock just before this story broke.

I still recall my phone conversation with the GM Executive back in the 80s.

“Go ahead and sue us. We’re GM. We’ll tie you up in court for years.”

I wonder why they went broke?

My 74 pickup and 1980 Jeep ran better and longer than any of these high tech vehicles today. The more cheap crap you add to drive up the price the worse these things are.

Learned a long long time ago all I needed to know about GM... there is no lipstick you can put on that pig.

The very idea that you have some new GM when the same folks are making the decisions now that made them prior to the bailout is nonsense.

They deserved to go BK and they should not have been given special exemptions from BK laws! A true BK might have salvaged the company, instead its just trying to spit shine the same old turd.

That evil and corrupt company does not have to be compassionate - Government Motors has friends in the White House. They showed no compassion for the lawful claimants on GM assets prior to the bankruptcy, instead stiffing the bondholders, suppliers, and others with senior claims in order to reward UAW and others with insider pull.

I am boycotting GM forever because of that shocking corruption, and while it’s sad that those too uninformed to recognize a rogue company got hurt by this newest instance of indifference, it’s hard to work up much sympathy. Those who deal with GM should not be surprised to experience the same corruption, reckless indifference, or low quality that have set the standard for GM ever since they went into bankruptcy proceedings.
