Default Re: GM Deathwatch


I'm not defending the management or whoever you want to blame in GM,....I'm just concerned about saving the American Auto indutry in America ....
.GM shot the auto industry in the foot...I can see a headshot in the future under Government micro-managing by all the new owners in Washington...........
There is already a story about a Congressman wondering why a battery for the new Chevy Volt wasn't being purchsaed from his district...instead of buying it from South Korea....The only problem is the battery from South Korea worked...Now....It would be great if they could get the bugs out of the U.S. made battery and use that one..But..are the new CEO'S in Washington gonna lobby for their own districts just for the sake of votes and lobbyists to make cars that fit their own political agendas or are they gonna make decisions on the basis of helping the American Auto industry make great cars ...that's what has me concerned..
..I'd like to see if this Sen. Alexander can get something started to at least prevent those in Washington from excessive interference......
