this big automotive plant & Co. should be allowed to crash and burn and go out of business. It refuses to make electric cars, or smaller, environmentally safe cars, and it is too stupid to compete with foreign automotive makers. Therefore, let it go out of business the way it is supposed to. Why should we pour money into this stupid company, when it is a worthless, idiotic, car companythat does not know how to make cars anymore? Let it go out of business! Let it crash and burn! Finance small car companies who make electric cars, and practical cars of the future! Get rid of GM now! It's a failure!
