TV's? The ones that are NO LONGER built in North America? Computers -
ditto? Did you know that 100% of the microwave ovens are built in China and
NOT BY GM? GM hasn't owned the Frigidaire brand in almost 35 years. GM had
NOTHING to do with the computer.

What did GM actually DO? GM was largely behind destroying public
transportation in America so it could sell cars. GM waged WAR on passenger
rail service that kept it non-competitive with air travel. Even today GM
spends MILLIONS every year fighting AGAINST light rail and other aspects of
public transportation. GM got WAY too large and got away with way too much
anti-competitive bull**** that helped demise the "Independent" car makers.
How? By controlling the price of steel and other raw materials. Making SURE
that companies like Kaiser, Studebaker, Nash etc had to pay THREE TIMES what
GM did for a ton of steel. Tying up tire manufacturers. So the independents
had to pay twice what GM did for tires. Little games like that.

No - GM needs to GO! They have built **** for decades. Today some of
their cars are only marginally okay. GM has fought against the development
of the electric car all along.GM has been a badly managed, BLOATED bag of
bull**** for a very long time. Corporate bullies. A symbol of everything
that can go wrong in capitalism. When companies are allowed to get too large
and run by BEAN COUNTERS.
