Some people might not use the tools the way they were intended. Here

How is this for starters Jim?

Not very creative.
*Butt* definitely to the point. ;-)
It's cold and raining. This thing was fun to do. Why don'y you try
making one with an actual point?
I fail to see what your point is.
Agreed.
I liked the second commercial better than the first, but both were
entertaining. Did you send them to GM? Any response?

I doubt that Gm would like either one. They really should pay attention
to the fact that they are making the same mistakes they made in the past.
And, we have all seen examples of fools who can't drive and talk at the
same time.
I don't think they are making the same mistakes they did in the 1970's.
They are offering fuel efficient cars yet offer the larger cars, pickup's
and SUV's for those who can afford them without worrying about gas mileage.
Choice is good. Let's not forget that.
Their quality has also improved dramatically. That is indisputable.
What is driving them into bankruptcy are the deals they made with the unions
when they were making money hand over fist in the 50's, 60's and 70's.
Except for Ford and Chrysler they were the only game in town then and making
money......lots of it. It was only right that they share those profits with
the workers. It was also only right that the unions accepted the offers.
That was then..........this is now. Their problem is they did not
forecast what those promises/commitments would end up costing in the 21st
century when folks started to retire and collect on not only the retirement
pay but the free medical benefits. They are now paying the piper.
Let's hope they do not renege on their promises to the folks who spent their
lives helping them make money. If you promise someone a retirement check
and to pay for their medical insurance, then for God's sake make sure you
make good on your promise.
I am generally not a pro union person (except for the skilled construction
trades), but these folks accepted what was offered to them and it is time
for GM to step to the plate and continue to deliver what they promised.
Let's hope this does not turn into another Republic Steel/J&L Steel/LTV
Steel deal for these GM retirees.
