They've already guarenteed they won't be importing Opels as Saturns.So it comes down to the ones that will be built here.

I think its time for labor to flex some Muscle. Not to go Quietly into poverty. Slay a few corporate Giants. Show that they are not cattle for thier corporate overlords.

The Callousness is offensive. The Old School economy(Slaves and masters) which what is being driven toward. Does not offer the outs you suggest. When people are demeaned into sub poverty wages, the children usually end up working at very early ages to help the Family out. Extreme class seperation leads to one thing. As for people Being taken Care of for thirty years after retirement. They took care of themselves that pension is EARNED WAGE. Its Thiers!!!!!!!!! They Worked for it!!!!!!! Its not company welfare, thats entirely B.S. Its thier money!!!!

rap like that is why we will have protectionism. And Huge Tariffs on Chinese, Korean, South American..... Auto Imports. Importing will be made Hugely Disadvantageous. Its coming like a mudslide. The Ground is soaking up more and more. Offshoring is going to be crushed. And U.S. companies who make the move offshore will be punished the most.

I figure take the Camaro, stretch the wheelbase 6 inches. Give it 4 doors and 2 headlights. Thats how I magine the Zeta Impala.

The Germans GM bought out last year got $250,000 each.

I wonder what will happen with CAMI?

The Retiree Healthcare thing is likely to be thrown out in court. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article...4/-1/BUSINESS07

GTO was'nt an Iconic name. Deville, El Dorado, Continental, were Iconic names.

GM is going to have to Fully Fund thier pensions. They are'nt getting out of it. They only way to do it it is selling assets. When the FASB gets the accounting loophole closed. GM will be showing 30 + Billion dollars of Unfunded pensions on the books. How will they make it up? booking 3 or 4 Billion Dollar loss a year on to Infinity? Making the stock value what 25 Cents a share? ( Not that I care in the least about stock value ) They Need to sell GMAC entirely and bank all of the proceeds for pensions.

The front end is way over done. The Profile is nice. No real market for it.

I hope people think about this, when they say pensions and Healthcare should be cut. It's not the retirees Fault that the U.S. gov sold them out for free trade. and GM's Management was'nt competent enough to maintain market share. These people, the retirees are more important then the Corporation. Hopefully part of the Pension reform will be asset disolution of underfunded corporations. To make up the Difference.

To small for Enclave. Enclave is Bigger then the Camaro.

ok so eminent domain it. sell it to Hyundai let them badge the trucks as kia and hyundai. give GM 5 cents on the dollar. IF GM is going to offshore production, the corporation ceases to be of any worth to America. Eventually they will be disolved to cover thier pensions. And there is no way in heck the Government lets them get off the hook for them either.

lol Anyway. last year when that crap was going on in New England, I read a little about Eminent Domain. And I think it can be applied in this manner. At the least you can Tie the Tooling up in court for years.

Eminent Domain the plant. Force GM to buy back the tooling at full value. Use the revenue from selling GM it's tooling back as incentives for new Business. Moraine is a Global Manufacturing System plant. With a c-Flex Bodyshop. If Gm wants to close it, the local Government should just slap eminent Domain on it.

Right now B.A.S. can't crank a V6.

I so Dislike Miller that I might be happier if it goes Nuclear and Delphi is destroyed and Dissolved. The anger in me would rather have the Entire U.S. auto industry fail then Miller get his sixteen million.

Like I said before it's going to get People Elected. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=100...t8&refer=europe People are paying attention. Out sourcing is going to Explode. If someone in Michigan says Vote for me I'll protect U.S. jobs. Think they'll get Votes? It's going to explode and no Whining from the W.T.O. is going to stop it.

Considering the U.A.W. does'nt want Vehicles from mexico Imported anymore. I think they would object to Importing the Astra. One of the things they will expect in return for concessions is fewer Imports. Besides once the Tariffs arrive imports will be super expensive. And the Tariffs are coming.

Hmm LGR already has GM's C-Flex body shop. Upgrading to? TRU-Flex?

http://online.wsj.com/public/us http://www.forbes.com/business/healthcare/.../ap2523175.html These would be Genuine New announcements? Not reannouncing the HFV6 for Flint? Or The X22f for Warren? Or the Lambdas for Delta Township? Something new For D-Ham or Orion would be Genuine. I hope It's not just a "Hey Look at me" event. Where they reannounce stuff, in a panic over Toyotas move into Michigan.
