This is not what I was saying at all. I'm saying that there were poor decisions made (not focusing on advancing other fuel technologies, not focusing on mileage) and someone has to be accountable for this stuff.
There was outside factors that caused problems, but look at other car companies: they're surviving. No one is conspiring against GM and they have no one to blame but themselves for the situation they're in.
Is it anyone's fault that GM's quality slipped for quite some time? Why should I have to buy a car from a company that has a bad track record in regards to quality? I'm not saying they still do but any bad perception of them from the public is probably from when there was a reason for that.
