GM still has about 25% of the US market, certainly a far cry from their heyday in the 50's and early 60's.

I would hate to see the US car industry shut down - if you look at the UK, their auto industry is gone along with every connected industry that supported it. Those were good paying jobs. If GM goes, Ford and Chrysler will tumble too. So there would be a mad scrammble for the Asians, Chinese or Indian car manufactureres to pick up the pieces. How sad. Then we could be all driving their bland plain jane cars and buy whatever they are willing to make.


I want to be a part of the companies that will buy their spare parts and service business. There is real money there.
