There is no proof to substantiate the MYTH that the government is taking over GM. In fact, there's multiple entities trying to set the record straight by issuing statements to the contrary. Unfortunately, not everyone listens. And so we're back to the beginning of this paragraph -- I can't debate against people who WANT to believe in the apocaliptic prophecies being tossed about.

You asked us to read your NYTIMES article. We did ... it says ...
"Instead, Mr. Obama will effectively use taxpayers as that investor, with the federal government getting slightly more than a 55 percent stake in the company in exchange for forgiving $10 billion in the automaker’s outstanding federal loans. The United Automobile Workers’ retiree trust would have just under 40 percent of the stock, under the G.M. plan."
So are you saying that your NYTIMES article is full of myths and is screaming bloody murder?
Good Lord step away from the Kool-Aide man ... I BEG YOU!
