though production is way down? The gov't will essentially "own" GM if they don't have a viable plan to pay back the billions they borrowed (and want to borrow) from Uncle Sam.
Isn't it important that Obama does everything he can to save and protect and create more high paying union jobs?
 
Absolutely - it's one of the 'strings' attached to the bailout money and stimulus package. Government will reserve the right to demand companies have unions and will set the amount a company must pay its workers. In ObamaWorld, payback isn't a b#ich, it's a bonus.
 
Obama already promised to increase wages. Maybe this is how he plans to do it by eliminating the lowest paid wage earners(aka the middle class)
 
It depends on who is at fault for the slowdown of production. If it is the executives, then it is right to get rid of them. If it is the fault of the line workers, then they should go. If GM cannot make a product that will sell, they do not need a bailout
