I believe GM is paying their employees when they shut down some of their plants. I think it is in the contracts ...

Then what is the point of closing down the plant for a month? The only thing they'll save money on is the electric bill.

Then what is the point of closing down the plant for a month? The only thing they'll save money on is the electric bill.

They'll also save money on the parts they don't have to buy for the cars they don't build.

And also on storage and shipping for the cars that they don't build that they couldn't sell anyway.
