first off ... link to said report?

secondly, what does it matter if its the government owns GM or not? GM's current shareholders have little influence on the cars that get built and the same would be true for any future shareholders. They would impact the corporate structure and such, but the fact of the matter is, small eco cars are not profitable for GM and big powerful ones are. So forcing them to build only eco cars is one of the stupidest possible moves that could be made.

And once again, all this "my tax money" this and that, any clue as to how much money GM has generated in tax revenue over the last year? From sales taxes, gas guzzler taxes, corportate taxes, and income taxes from employees? I'm going to go out on a limb and say that its a couple bucks more than what the members of this forum collectively contribute. In effect, they have a greater claim to ownership of the company that any of us ever would, even if it was 100% owned by the government.
