Im sorry Im a bit more of a fatalist right now, and feel this is the tip of the Iceberg.

Pinside isnt the place for this, nor today is any form of social media or even family discussion.

i could be wrong, but with daily emails from friends and family around the world, Family in DC, as well as on the inside,
and enough free time now to learn, I hope Im wrong, but the info suggests otherwise.

Quoted from o-din:

An old lady at Costco randomly said to us yesterday "You do know these are the last days"
So I said "The last days of Pompeii?"
She just gave me a dirty look and muttered something as she walked away.

Not fair .....If we visit each other one day, Ill tell you stories from the Pentagon, and White House.

Hopefully these cuts were to avoid another Bailout or Bankruptcy..... I doubt they would have gotten any more funds....
Think this is the reason, Ice?

Quoted from iceman44:

That's what they claim. Necessary to avoid future bailout/bankruptcy.
Getting profitable by cutting cars not selling and the labor that goes along with them "will lead to adding jobs back in the future".
It's not just GM, its the suppliers that will take a hit as well.
Not sure which management team has been worse since 2000, GM or GE?

Perhaps they will make a car that runs on Beautiful Clean Coal!
