Yah! What he said.
A while back we had a clown running for President who was aptly described as "a hand grenade with a bad haircut".
Anyway, he coined the phrase "the giant sucking sound" and if you listen real good from Canada you can hear it.
This time it is the sound of our Pres purposely steering the US into the toilet and don't fool yourself, most of the industrialized world is going down with us.
Just listen to some honest reporting (if there is such a thing anymore) from the current G20 conference. The rest of the world leaders know that Oback Barama is flushing them too.
If you are storing food you better have a gun so you can keep the food. I figure ammo will be the new currency and there won't be a safe Mormon household on the continent.

The new head hunters put in charge will go for quality and cost savings over protecting union jobs. Union propaganda only sells so many cars, less than quality will.Best of luck.

Geez Murf, That is NOT the view from the vortex, at least when we can see beyond the toilet paper. Barama leaked the strategy when he blurted to Joe the Plumber. It is all about righting cosmic wrongs.
The rich, evil CEO's have stolen from the workers too long and we have to return the wealth to "its rightful owners". In this instance it is the poor oppressed union workers.
GM and Chrysler will be restructured to maximize benefits for the unions, and restructured to produce not the most profitable car lines but only the "green" models that are currently collecting dust on the dealers lots.
And when the stupid little econo-boxes don't sell, the government will step in and buy them to keep the whole charade afloat.
The kicker for me was when the same government who buys $900 toilet seats, destroyed Social Security and mis-managed Medicare into a Black Hole promised to honor and IMPROVE on GM's vehicle warranties.
Oh Boy........ That certainly will turn GM showrooms into ghost towns. Can you say Yugo?
And watch out Toyota! These people cannot stand the competition and will have to drive you offshore or mandate your participation in the UAW.

Oh, BTW........ If you think I am really out in left field, have a good look at our National Rail System, Amtrak.
It is the model for what is coming to the government run car industry.

"In the end the almighty green-back will win out over the 'best' intentions of the Goober-mint."
We'll see, but so far conserving/making money has not been the object to anything proposed........

In the interest of full disclosure, I have been a union member most of my life and in my last job sat on the union Executive Board, negotiated labor and retiree health contracts, staffed arbitrations and held the office of Vice-President.
That said, some of the political manipulations I had to participate in left a bad taste in my mouth. I was a very strange duck those circles being a Conservative Republican.
Having been on the "inside" I can tell you that in my view the UAW has run a bit amok in its latter years because of the national political clout it carries due to hefty contributions to unsavory politicians. Management abrogated their right to effectively manage the company and let the inmates run the asylum.
