Why is it that most self proclaimed leftists would rather censor and stop discussion about what is really happening at all fronts that include every form of media? If it wasn't for talk radio which is the only medium left that has an opposing opinion, none would be heard. There is just so few places Conservative American's can go these days to hear opinions. If there was an area of the forum where politics could be discussed, you would not be forced to enter that area..
In any case, the number has increased to the Government owning up to 74% of GM...
From what I understand by the wording used by the administration, Obama himself has stated he wants to have every car to be able to get 39MPG and not just the fleet average by a certain time. I'm hoping he made a mistake on that one and meant fleet average. So far this does not look well for the V8 SS and the Corvette.
If this forum keeps on censoring any anti- Government Policy on vehicles, and the media (CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC) keeps on defending those policies..Then this is not the America where it is the land of the free anymore.
If it wasn't for Government placing so many rules and regulations on the car companies over the years, they wouldn't be in this situation in the first place.
We as American's shouldn't have to sit back and be censored when we have a voice and an opinion in a forum that promotes a vehicle that will now be controlled by the Government.
I think Tran should highly consider my opinion on this issue and have a talk once more with the mods to at least create an area of the forum that allows for any dissent against Government policy in relation to GM after the takeover is complete.
I definitely want to see a complete restructuring of GM by means of a re-writing of health care/legacy costs.. General Motors has become a health care provider over the years and a car company second.
I don't like and want Government control over our lives. All of the Government loan money given to GM which is essentially our money is going to be forgiven...Poof..Gone.. All of this cash infusion already given to GM was to make sure GM does not go into bankruptcy....What has happened since then?? This was all planned from the get go to give more power to the UNions and for the Government to take over control... Then you have Obama saying and I quote "You ain't seen nothing yet"... I have seen all I want to see and being quieted is not healthy for America.. We all need to stand together and discuss what we can do as Americans about what is happening to out country.. My two cents.. So Tran, please reconsider this forum policy of no political talk..
