Our government puts in billions to save 38,000 jobs and at the same time cuts what I believe I heard to be 200,000 jobs at the dealerships.(May include Chrysler).

GM spread themselves too thin. They need to reduce their size so that they can go down to a level where they will be profitable again. At a smaller size, they cannot support the current number of dealers.
it's either close down some dealers, or GM goes entirely bankrupt.
Maybe after they downsize, they can finally get my car built. I ordered back in January, and I am still at 1100.
