The new GM

I will be really interested in seeing just exactly what GM becomes over the next few months, and years. I have to wonder just exactly what pressure Government Motors will have put on them to build the smaller, more efficient cars that the government wants but consumers rather obviously do not. How long will it take for the fed to move in with their "approved" vehicle list is anyone's guess, but I would assume that we will see something very quickly. The question then becomes can the government declare bankruptcy when they drown the new company that they own in red tape and cars that no one will buy?

  1. I cry when I think of how all my life -- never "rich" except in family, friends, love, and my salvation -- (well, I guess I am rich, come to think of it) -- I always wanted to drive a Cadillac. In 2006 my husband bought me a used '04 CTS ... the only Cadillac we could afford. How I've loved driving it and looked forward to someday owning a newer model. Now I doubt that will ever happen. Stupid thing to be thinking of in light of these developments, perhaps. But I grew up poor and Cadillac always symbolized the American Dream to me. How I hope and pray it does not die. God Bless America.
