government making money ...

i realize there are a lot of younger guys on here but the idea that the government will run GM like a smart business because they're interested in making money boggles me. The gov loses money with everything it touches. It gave us amtrak which has lost money year in and year out for decades. And it just took on enough debt to put us all in the hole for generations to come.

The government will make decisions based on what is politically expedient ... not based on rational/logical thinking. And certainly not based on what consumers want. Otherwise we'd all be trying to get our hands on the Soviet era LADAs or whatever that car was they produced over there.

I just think by buying my Camaro and paying GM over the next 3 years I'll be supporting what I think is an incredibly bad precedent and I hate to do that ..


... But I like the car too much ....
