Oh yeah...GM is up to its eyeballs in debt to the taxpayer, has been pretty much forced to make cars that extremely few people want, making the repayment of that debt even more difficult, and being touted by lolberals as a "great success story" of bailout nation!
Like you ever think!
Pffft.
Your progressive douchebag idol Boiking has turned GM into chattel property of the federal gubmint, and you claim that is not only a "success story" but deem those who scoff at the pure preposterous of that proposition as assholes.
The heart of our economic woes is know-it-all economic central planner assholes, the assholes that assholes like you blindly and unquestioningly support, who think that they can run the entire economy out of the Kremlin....er....the District of Criminals.
The last person here doing any thinking here is you, comrade.

Quit trying to pretend that you think...Nobody with two brain cells to rub together believes it.
GM Volt August Sales Estimated Around 2,500 Units
You see that?....A little over 2,800 whole cars sold!
Yup, communistic economic central control really delivers the goods!
For those who think...that central planners should control the economy
GM wouldn't have "died" anymore than any other company that has reorganized under Chapter 11.GM dying would not kill America in and by itself. However it is an indacator of what is wrong.
Within 5-10 years many of our autos will be imported from China.
Auto sales and useage in China if doubling often. And their tech on reverse engineering cars is improving.
It started with friviolous stuff and toys, hand tools, etc. Moved to electronics and the next big exports of China will be vehicles and machinery.
A nation whose economy is based mostly on consumer spending cannot long last.
Obama screwed shareholders in buying GM in favor of the unions.
The liberal nonsense that GM would "fail" is complete horse-shit. In fact, I dare say that GM would have been better as a company if they would have defaulted into bankruptcy. This would have enabled all kinds of protective measures.
Sure it would have spawned several bankruptcies for suppliers as well - but that happened anyway.

No, without consumers keeping the exchange of goods and services flowing, there would be nothing to refer to as "the economy"...It wouldn't exist at all.GM wouldn't have "died" anymore than any other company that has reorganized under Chapter 11.GM dying would not kill America in and by itself.

Yes consumer spending is our economy and that IS our main problem.
However if we had a positive trade balance it would not be an issue but with global comeptition it is impossible for us to regain a positive trade balance until our standards of living drops quite a bit more.

We have lost control of our economy, large multinational finiancial and manufacturing corporations now control our economy and in a world economy where our standard of living is far higher than that of most nations our standard of living will continue to decline. It is inevitable. I predicted this in the 90's. And if the origional politics.com was around I would have proof in the archives.

Me too friend...I have been saying the same thing for at minimum 20 years.
The financial services industry owns our ass lock, stock and barrel.
We no longer live in a democratic republic. We live in a plutocratic society like America was in the late 1800's. And Obama fits in like a glove in plutocratic principles...like a glove.
