    Why is GM failing so bad?

    Depends what you consider to be the best. Fuel consumption? frequency of repairs? I take a Land Cruiser over any american truck any day. BTW I once drove from New York to Panama and back so I have been off road a little bit and unlike fellas who buy their trucks to drive to a local...

    Why is GM failing so bad?

    Little being the operative word here. Get out more and you shall see what THE REST OF THE WORLD drives. I assure you it has that elusive T stampped somewhere on the body. You are right the chance of spotting a ford or GM car are as elusive as spotting a carrera.

    Why is GM failing so bad?

    1. labor is no higher than in other western world countries. I doubt german worker gets paid less to build cars in the "motherland". As for health care - GM could have lobbied the Congress to introduce universal HC. They sure did push other agendas on the congress. 2. Like I said...

    Why is GM failing so bad?

    I would blame the management not the unions or workers. After all all the German car makers have strong unions and they do pay top dollar to their employees, yet we do not see BMW going under. Same goes for workers. Most Japanese car makers have factories in the US and their cars sell well and...

    Why is GM failing so bad?

    If I can get a 5 year old Aviator for 25% of the cost of the original then long live the big 3. Other than that, don't let the door hit you on your way out. I wonder how the scenery would change if the big 3 were to walk into the sunset.

    There is nothing like that euphoric feeling when the market is right and you are on the same side of the fence. We have all been there. The question is have you visited the other side of this equation? D0 not worry.... you will. we all have.

    Obama To Introduce Crackdown Measures On Tax Havens

    I think he is unfairly attacking all those rich folks trying not to pay taxes and meet their obligations under already very favorable tax system in the US. It is all very clear, according to some, Obama should go after all those welfare folks. I mean come on all this socialism and commie ways...

    One thing I like the most is that 90% E. Europan women can out drink me with ease. Unfortunately, I have yet to experience "being taken advatage of" by one of them when I wake up the next morning. :( It would be nice ..... :D
