Aw, the poor employees of GM. Its funny how all you ever hear about is them getting layed off, but nobody ever seems to mention they will still be getting 90-95% of their pay. Their nine weeks of being layed off is nothing more than nine weeks of vacation. Under those conditions, I'd be throwing a barbecue to celebrate my nine weeks of vacation. Who the hell is supposed to feel sorry for them. They've had it way too easy for way too long. They're overpaid and underworked. I dont have a ounce of sorrow for them. They deserve it. Now maybe they can get a real job out in the real world makin $10-15/hr like the rest of America. They've had this coming to them for awhile, but the morins making six figure incomes decided not to do anthing about. Now when their ship is sinking, we the taxpayers are supposed to save them. If my factory is about to file for bankruptcy, is the govenment gonna bail us out? Hell no, let GM go under, every other company in the U.S. that isnt capable of supporting itself would be shutdown. But the people who've had it the easiest for several years, we're suppose to save. And people wonder whats wrong with America nowadays.

Your $10-$15/hr job doesn't make up the middle class of this country. They die, the US dies. I'm not a GM employee, but comon...Do you really want to see a Defiance with no GM???? If so, sell your house now, because it isn't going to be worth anything if GM does fold. GM has a lot of problems, but them making what they make is not really one of them.

I agree to a certain point. But think about the more money any one makes, the more taxes they pay, and in the end, makes better roads and better schools. Where do you think all that comes from? It's too bad the job you have doesn't pay better. Maybe there smarter, ever hear work smarter not harder. Signed

I couldnt agree more..i work for a gm supplier.we make it just fine making $13.00 an hr..I dont feel sorry one bit..honestly I think most people would work there for $20 an hr or less and be more than satisfied.I would be one of them.I wish people would open their eyes and wake up..greed is what is running this country in the hole..
