When the government came out and started making insane comments about not driving, my reaction was, “Why on earth would any government official say something so outrageous.”
Then it hit me immediately: This is how “corporations” work when they are owned and run by the government. They have no real competition because they can change the rules so that they win. They have free advertising. They don’t have to worry about bad press. And they can do whatever they want to destroy their competition.
Toyota is killing the American car manufacturers in the compact-car market. The government, who owns GM, can’t stand that. So they are attacking the entire company and trying to destroy the perception of some great cars over one flaw, which the company is fixing.

When I heard Obama's people say not to drive the cars it struck me as a very odd thing to say...it only took 10 seconds for me to realize it likely had something to do with Obama running GM. I wasn't planning on buying a government car but this sort of dishonest behavior just cements it even more for me.
