Blur, your smart than that. GM and the big three were in trouble way before all of that, their model has been outdated and in trouble for years. Dont blame OPEC thats an easy out. I work for an oil company, and if the oil companies were just passing along cost associated with OPEC we would not be posting record profits. So if you believe that its OPEC's fault how are oil companies post record profits?

The definition of Insanity is doing the same thing an expecting a different result. The big three have to change, they have started, but they have a ways to go.

Your frustrated Blur, we all are and we all want our Camaro, now. But we can't keep our heads in the sand, we have to face this huge problems and your right they are interconnected and they leave little room for your own errors. In the end I want the American economy to be robust and healthy and I want GM to be the same, and last and least I want my Camaro!
