		<description>Leftist politicians are very predictable in what they pursue - power and control over as many people as possible.  What the Obama administration seeks to save here above all else is the power of the UAW union, a big Democratic party supporter.  And we shall see if the Obama administration also seizes the GM bankruptcy as an opportunity to control what GM management is allowed to bring to market in the U.S., namely small, light vehicles that get high mileage, but which you would not want to be inside in a wreck.  Remember power and control.</description>

		<description>Interesting piece... I agree with a lot of it and it will probably play out that way, but I also agree with M. Scott!

That&#039;s exactly what the Chinese will do! Nixon did more than screw that up... he created the DEA which was formed with an insideous purpose. Plus taking us off the Gold Reserve... as stated earlier... thanks Dick!

Any the above piece does confirm one thing, alternative energy products including vehicles should be our focus. The other key point is... as GM is saved by China, oil consumption will increase which makes it profitable to own that commodity as well as gold.

Read the signs and position yourself appropriately with both short and long term profits.</description>

		<description>The Obama administration must decide: Who are you trying to save? GM or the American worker.  Or it may be even a higher issue, a matter of saving the domestic auto industry in America for our own national security and defense. Can you imagine going to war against China without an auto sector?  In this world you must think and plan for the unimaginable.  You don&#039;t want to be caught with your pants down.

Another point to why  GM went bankrupt: Wasn&#039;t it largely related to their millions of dollars invested outside the U.S. like China?  GM stretched itself too thin expanding globally.  And GM kept blaming the unions for their demise.  Ridiculous!

And now you tell me that GM China is a separate operation and not part of GM in the United States that went broke after receiving millions of dollars to get the China company going.  And you telling the Chinese company employing Chinese workers going ship cheap cars to the U.S. at the expense of U.S. workers?  By the way, where do the profits from the China GM go since it is a separate and stand alone entity? Do they come back to GM in the United States?  And who owns GM China?

Another question is where is GM&#039;s core market? As a corporation owned mostly by the federal government and the union it falls naturally that the U.S. domestic market is the core market and it behooves GM to keep that in mind in setting policy, designing and building their vehicles and marketing their products.

I am currently a proud owner of a Buick.  It is a well made car and I am a very satisfied owner.  Before that, I was a proud owner of three Oldsmobiles and I was very satisfied.  I don&#039;t want GM to disappear.  It is a great brand and it makes good, quality cars.

The bankruptcy was a case of poor management.  The corporation was not able to get its act together going globally like McDonalds, Yum Brands, the former Budweiser, etc..

I hope it get its act together this time after bankruptcy because I want to keep owning GM cars.  As far as I am concerned, GM makes great cars! I also own a Ford F150 pick-up truck and a Ford Ranger.  I think Ford makes the best pick-up trucks.

As you can see, I am partial to domestic cars and the old reliable brands. I do my little bit to keep American workers employed and keep our domestic auto industry healthy.  The other countries do the same for their auto industries.  Why can&#039;t we U.S. citizens do the same?

We are in a recession and to get out it&#039;s all about saving jobs and adding jobs here in the U.S.  The Obama administration must look at GM from this angle and the immediate way to go is to stimulate demand from existing under utilized automobile manufacturing plants.</description>

		<description>The Chinese will simply do the same thing to GM that they did to Timkin Bearing. When the contract comes up for renewal 5ive or so years from now the Chinese will simply not renew it. They will, however offer to sell GM replicas of the GM&#039;s that the Chinese will now be making in a duplicated plant several miles down the road. And in effect GM will be gone much the same as Timkin is now. Amazing how some business leaders don&#039;t learn! Remember, it was Nixon who got us into this mess. Wait until the Chinese begin to really increase their military! Thanks again Dick! Geeezzz</description>
