Goodbye, GM
by Michael Moore


(snip)

Michael Moore doesn't know how to make GM right.
And neither does GM.
I just saw its CFO in an interview.
He was asked about American jobs.
He bragged that 66% of GM vehicles bought by Americans are made by
Americans.
Then he was asked to allay worries that GM cars will be made in China.
He bragged that 99% of GM cars bought by Chinese are made in China.
He didn't bat an eye. Saw nothing odd about what he had said.
Neither than the interviewer.


Obi wan kenobi says "look over there, there's nothing here to see..."

American management. American in-depth press.
Of course the DJIA is up 250 points on news of the GM bankruptcy.
Anybody with sense knows that if the southern hemisphere was wiped
out by a meteor, the Dow would surge on news that the northern
hemisphere didn't get hit.
American business is corrupt.
The only hope for GM is to pirate Honda and Toyota management
to run it.


Best idea I've heard.

I do think that Moore is on the right track by pointing out that our
underutilized industrial capacity can produce goods other than cars.
