It WILL happen on Monday.. take that to the bank


And it's just a reorg.. although the govt is involved so all the small investors will get totally screwed while the big banks and unions will do good.

Welcome to the new world where the laws are just something to be changed. I'm sure the govt will run GM as good as they run the DMV. lol

So if the gov't owns GM and the people own the gov't (since we pay their salaries). All of us own GM as well. So we should all get employee pricing right....

GM won't be going anywhere, and should not effect the market value wise. Classic have already made a market adjustment. however if anymore people get laid off, may be a few more selling or not working on their toys

Lets see...Govt now owns GM, banks, insurance companies, soon to be govt universal health care.

Oh yeah, where has all the billions of bailout cash went to over past 8 months? When is enough, enough and the current congress and administration going to figure out that throwing money at situations doen't do a thing. If spending more money fixed things, we would have never had recessions or the great depression.

WELCOME TO SOCIALISM!

OK..Im off my soapbox.
