New Name for GM
AS OF 08:00 Hours, this morning the new name for General Motors Corporation has become Government Motors. The take over of GM by the government is the second major step in making the United States a Socialist Republic. I have warned about many times before; however, many of the Liberals and Supporters,especially those that hated George W. Bush, have seen their dreams come true. It is a terrible day in the history of the United States, when the Federal Government has to take control of a major US manufacturing corporation because the UAW supported his royal highness president Barack. The UAW along with rear sighted management caused the demise of this company. Magament was told by their dealers in the 80s that the Japanese and Germans were building automobiles that were far superior and that they sold at prices that as low as GM. I don't feel sorry for GM or Chrysler because they brought it on themselves, but I don't like governtment controlled manufacting or government health plans.

2) Except for the socialist remark and the universal health care reference, I totally agree. I think it's ridiculous that our government first bailed them out, but even worse now that we straight up control them. If I had to vote on which auto company I'd like my tax dollars to go to (not that I want my tax dollars going there anyway), it would certainly not be GM. Let them go bankrupt and dissolve. Let them restructure or figure out a new plan. But to step in like this, with taxpayers' money supporting a private company, it's just unacceptable. I will go back to my job now thanks.

4) How many of you are ready to go over to your GM dealer and stand at the bottom of the transport truck and take possession of your vehicle? When the vehicle rolls of the transporter it is the property of the dealer; however, for that split-second GM still owns the car, so I am going to to go get my car because GM owes one to me. I really would like to have a Pontiac Solstice.

5) Bean, I have no idea why you would care about my opinion because to tell you the truth I don't understand any of it at all!

6) The Topic that is being discussed here is Collective Economies, such as the Russian System, under Nikita Khruschev and Josef Stalin. Senor Castro has tried the same Management of the Cuban Economy. I appreciate views of History Majors because they are somewhat different than Economists.

7) Too bad, your president, Mr. Obama doesn't understand the meaning of Market Competition because in order to make the New GM survive, he and his Congress have to pass a Tariff Law to protect GM. The Obama Tariff would limit the number of foreign automobiles can be imported into the US.

8) Bean,

Please tell us what exactly Market Competition is. I will tell you what it is not. It is not market competition when one manufacturer has to incur health care costs for its workers while the other manufacturer does not. It is not competition when one company can hire children for pennies a day while the other company can not. It is not market competition when the playing field is not level.

In this situation, I support tariffs. We have a huge trade imbalance and based on national security concerns we need our car companies to survive and thrive.

9) Market Competition also hinges on their products that are sold in the US have better quality, and that is the reason that the imports from Germany and Japan put GM and Chrysler out of business. The reason that GM stills remains in business is because the UAW was given a large share of the ownership as a reward for having supported "Your President". Hourly wage differences were the major differences because $47>$74 is a major difference. I am beginning to think that many people in the US have no concept of the relationship of costs of productions and Sales Cost. GM would not have made it, even if the banking crunch had not occurred because the average person that buys GM produced automobiles couldn't have afford them. The automobile sales dealers use to have a Sales Slogan:What wins on Sunday sells on Monday and used to be true with Ford,Chevrolet, and Pontiac; consequently, when Toyota entered NASCAR Racing it was reinforced, but GM cars are winning occaisonally but the company is now in bankruptcy under a new name Government Managed Motors.

10) Hate to break the news to you Beaner, but until you move to Canada he's YOUR president too.

11) Snelly, he is not my president because I did not vote for him and his asociates, as far as I am concerned he is a Media Creation without any substance. By the way, Snell: Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, John Kennedy, HS Truman, and FDR were not my presidents because they were not Conservative and for the Common Person.

12) Bean - I gotta agree with Snelly on this one - as long as you live in the good ole US of A and are an American Citizen - he is YOUR President - whether you like him or not - whether you voted for him or not. And fact is - you may not like the job he is doing - but you could not do any better then him.

13) I was very certtain that John McCain could and would have done better. There are some details that are being hidden about the Banking Crises that will come out and lead to the destruction of the image of mr. obama and acorn.

14) If these details are being hidden, how exactly did Old Man Bean come to learn them? Have you got someone on the inside?? And again, it doesn't matter who you voted for. You live here, he's YOUR president for 4 years.

15) It has always been hard for me to identify with anyone that is so far to one side that they can't see the other. I lean to one side, as I think most people do, but I spend just as much time if not more considering the views and intentions of the opposing side. And on occasion those opinions agree with me more.

To make blanket statements regarding the distaste of decades of liberal presidents is bold and most likely lacking fair evaluation. Even the worst president has done a few good things that everyone can applause. The presidents listed by BeanCounter were some of the best and highest ranked presidents(pollwise) of our country's history. And in most cases that had little to do with their party but how they handled the current affairs and state of the country during their time in office.

16) Bean,

John McCain was clueless. I wanted Romney. I still believe he was the best guy for the job. He was conservative and the smartest one on the campaign trail and he had a successful track record of turning both businesses and governments around.

But the right wing Christian base black balled him because he was a Mormon. I am not sure that he would have won but he would have done a much better job than McCain.

17) McCain so old, he spell-checked the declaration of independance.

18) Look at what we got: an american president that is betraying our long term and time allies, just so he can appeal to his "REAL PEOPLE".

19) Damn McCain all you want because after Obama and his cronies have finished raping this country, you will realise that John McCain was not the worse choice after all. Tax Cuts are better than Tax Increases and that is what you heading for Obama and his dictatorial government.

20) socialist or dictatorship? your going to have to pick one... is he going to be communist tomorrow? or did I miss that one..

And even if Obama makes decisions that dont work out, atleast he isnt sitting at home complaining about it and listening to the bias of FOX.
