I can not wait for GM and Chrysler to go.

You must be posting from a Psycho Ward. Do you have any notion on how bad it would be for GM or even Chrysler to go under. It would be a terrible blow for an economy already on the edge.

No I'm not a hack for the Unions as I'm sure some of the dolts on this site might think (insofar as they can think). It isn't like manufacturing in general is healthy in the US. Manufacturing is in serious trouble. It has been for a very long time. Give me some examples of manufacturing companies that are doing well. You won't be able to think of any.

The government has made manufacturing very difficult here in the US.

We must have manufacturing to have a healthy economy. This "green" jobs thing is a fantasy. If you believe in it you are a major fool.

Maybe they should elect Truthguy as CEO. He sure has the passion and that's what has been missing from the US auto industry since the 1950s. I like this guy!

I actually own one....

I'm 100% with you on this one. Green jobs are crazy. They don't exist and as soon as green products are invented (assuming commercial viability) the manufacture will be exported to cheaper labor markets. These things can't be easily made by robots.

If you will pay attention, April Lexington has given you an example!

It would be a blow to SOME peoples economy, but a boon to others( but they are going to be taxed anyways, so screw’m. Right?)

Let the Japanese, Koreans, Germans build, manage and more importantly, subsidise their manufactures here.

You have not read the fundamental economics fallacy of fixing the broken window.

You see GM. I see thousands of productive, innovative, profitable small to medium manufacturers that are suck to weakness by taxes to support bloated, elderly, slow moving, political, outdated, low quality GM and Chrysler.

What is given to them, is taken from another. Which you seem to defend.

There is boatloads of money sloshing around the world. GM could not beg, find, borrow, sell or get any of that. That, is called a clue.

Naturally you, Obama, GM losers, and the unions, none of which are putting up their money, think otherwise.

Boeing, Fortune Brands, Ford, Exxon, Tata, BAE Systems...

A lack of US based manufacturing is one of the main reasons we are in this mess. It’s all part and parcel of the movement to displace the wealth of the western world and consolidate it into the hands of those wish our demise.

All of their “green” crap and the sky is falling crap is just subterfuge for their true purpose.

Where is it written that GM and Chrysler has to stay in business?? Just because they declare bankruptcy doesn’t mean they won’t shutdown.. Time to trim the fat..
