I don't think GM's chief problem is crappy product. They make some decent vehicles, especially 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton trucks. GM's problem is legacy costs and unreasonable union contracts they should've never agreed to.

No bailout. A bailout to the Big 3 isn't a bailout to the car maker, it's a bailout to the union. I say let em twist in the wind.
