Until the day after the election, keep the bad news coming; I can’t believe they’re actually reporting this stuff...

Car buyers are just too stupid to know what to buy. That’s why Barry has to dictate our purchases.

Seems logical. Why on earth would a company that screwed its premium bond investors, acquiesced to the UAW Pension Fund by giving them a lion’s share of the company and then finally turns over the rest of the company to Obama want to keep a Research and Development Center for cripes sake?
I mean, since Obama and his environmental zealots are and will be telling what technology, what improvements (sarc)and what cars to build, why on earth would a research and development operation be needed? For that kind of money, they could fund thousands of those UAW guys that sit around the ‘excess labor’ recreation hall every day.

The Tech center has been where the brunt of white collar job losses have occured. We have a close friend who lost her job there when they declared bankruptcy; she had 34 years. Everyone here seems to hate GM, at least the bailout. I agree that 90% of GM’s problems stemmed from UAW largesse. but the non-union white collar workers are the ones that really got screwed. I wouldn't want to impugn your shadenfreude though...

It’s OK to lay off white collar workers. They don’t automatically donate to the Democrat party.

Sounds as though GM identified the 100 people responsible for the Volt.
GM developed the Chevy Volt at its Warren Technical Center in Michigan. (GM photo )
