gm owns 9.9 percent of ally and the us gov owns 74 percent. Those are the facts. I don't think it really matters if ally fails. its not like it will hurt gm in the long run. What will hurt gm is cost of labor and retirment just like it has before. The headline should be that the US GOV is giving out loans to people that can't pay them back!
