subsidized by France and protected by lazy French voters.

GM=win if it nips UAW in the bud.

you really have no clue, some of you cattlehumpers are really to stupid to have a discussion with

What makes you think that this years year end profits will be similar. From what I've gathered GM's turnaround plan is right on track, they may even break even this year. This is of course thanks to the buy outs for union employees. Foghorn is correct, get rid of the UAW and you'll see a stronger more profitable GM.



his statement about "subsidized by France and protected by lazy French voters"
typical flagwaving moron statements, I'm ony missing the cheese eating surrender monkey line.

fyi: Renault is a public traded company, French state has a 15% stake (that they want to sell) and state interventenion is forbidden bu EU regulation
there is more to it than above. Suppliers.

GMs turnaround numbers are based on old numbers. They lost $10 Billion last year, sales are not increasing in fact they are decreasing. Wagner managed to wring out $8 Billion (his number not official) out of GM so far that excludes one of costs like contract buy outs. My bet is they lose about 4 Billion this year excluding one off costs.

Even without the UAW GM is in trouble (btw unions = the suck). Unions are good when employees rights are being trampled on there job shouldn't be take as much of the company as possible.
