Just let it go (file bankruptcy) and you'll feel much better :) This whole scenerio reminds me of a person that has to puke, but keeps trying to hold it back.

If formula is the same, and there is no reason to believe otherwise, UAW will control and own two companies that it destroyed and until those companies will be able to stay on its own feet (probably never or election 2012) we will subsidize design, production and development of vehicles that no one has intention of buying, except union members working and owning those plants. It is a sad day for the country, economy, our beliefs values. RaineMan, you can laugh, but if you pay taxes or have children, more appropriate emotion would be tears.

The unions caused half of the problems in the first place, especially at GM with all their strikes and high legacy costs. Making them masters of their own destiny is going to cause more problems down the road... just like letting the inmates run the asylum.
