And it will likely continue until a politician with balls gets to the
top. Trouble with corporate welfare, is it is almost impossible to get
them off. The issue usually needs to be forced down their greedy slug
throats.

What Obama should not have asked is if GM is too big to fail, he should
have asked can we afford a leach this size on the hind.

I assume these shuttered plants are now owned by the "old GM" (Motors
Resolution Corp, or whatever they call it). So it seems the
alternative to the Government picking up the tab for cleaning them up,
is to just let them sit there. Right?

Like the old steel mills in the US, they are most likely considered to be
"Brown Fields," that are caped and sold off and returned to other productive
uses.

There is a Sands, Intermogal Shipping Center, Industrial Machining
plant, Skating rink, Theater of the Arts Center, numerous Warehouses, NG
fired Power plant among others, now located on the grounds of the seven by
three mile former Bethlehem Steel plant in Bethlehem Pa.

Still it is a GM legacy kicked onto the taxpayers by a corrupt government.

Must be embarasing to say you work for a welfare corporation like GM.

After all, GM keeps on sucking.

Perhaps, but I prefer to buy GM stock, when it goes public in the fall, and
will continue to buy the brand vehicles I currently buy.
