Have the government take over their pensions:





Uh, NOOOO!!!! Why the hell should every American taxpayer including ME have to pay the pension bills for a multibillion corporation, one that willingly entered into the obligation to pay those pensions? One that last month paid Fiat $2 Billion to get out of a deal wherein Fiat could have forced GM to buy Fiat's failing automotive operations? Poor, sad GM.

Try building a top quality product, one that can compete with the current generation of Hondas and Toyotas, not something like the new Pontiac G6 - a car that's barely up to the bar set by the last generation Accord and Camry instead of setting the bar higher than those cars are. Then you won't have to tack on several thousand $$ of incentives to sell your cars, they'll sell themselves at or near MSRP and cover that pension burden.
