A company with no REAL plan especially a survival plan has no business with out tax money.

All you GM employees are screwed, you work for the dumbest mismanagement team on earth. If ou were smart you woud make them the next round of employee cuts. Even if the ship was Captainless it couldn’t function any worse.

Something that I doubt ANY dealer said:

“Wow! Improve market share and profit? Why didn’t I think of that before?! Thanks, I’ll get right on it. After all, even though I own my own dealership and rely on it to support my family, I’ve just been a slack-ass and pissing money away for the last few decades!”

That’s like the government waving its magic wand and fixing everything.

It looks like GM’s turnaround plan is still, “don’t suck.”
