    It's not just America. There are thousands of people losing thier GM jobs in Canada as well.

    They had the opportunity a loooongg time ago to make energy-efficient cars not based on oil and chose not to….sorry, when Japan is making prototypes of cars that run on water, you either stay with the pack or lose the race!!!

  11. Porky says – reply to this

    Yeah, and you think this is a newsflash? GM had laid off thousands before. Gee, most car companies have. That's all we need…economic news and analysis from a fat fuck.

  12. Hey P says – reply to this

    Once again, instead of just regurgitating what other sources are spitting out, why not really inform your readers. GM has been on a slippery slope downward for more than 2 years. Starbucks oversaturated the market, so they're closing the stores. They overproduced across the board. Our economy only gets fucked up if we allow it to be fucked up. There are still plenty of jobs that your readers will refuse to take. So rather than assume it's a recession, do your fucking homework and realize the job loss does not mean we're in a recession. For fuck's sake woman, do your job.

    I live near a GM plant. That sucks ass! It's because they pay people way too much money. I mean don't get me wrong thats good for the people who work there but maybe if they would take a pay cut they could keep their jobs. GM sucks ass anyways.

    Hey you big gay wad, a recession is two quarters of negative economic growth in a row and we have not even had one yet. Perhaps you could help the economy by getting a real job and not blogging and to also stop shoving 4 dicks in your mouth at a time.

    stop talking about the economy on here. you aren't an economic expert and it's getting really old reading this stuff on here everyday. you're depressing everyone. this is supposed to be a fun website and you're making it suck. hardcore.

    The terrosits plans are working…and George Bush is one stupid fuck.

    1) 911 Attacks - check
    2) US starts war (multiple wars) - check
    3) Get them to the point of no return - check
    4) Bankrupt the economy from massive war costs - check (well on it's way)

    It's only gonna get worse. This should be no surprise to any american with half a brain.

    Here's the saddest part of the story………….There are STILL people who will vote Republican in November and somehow believe there's NOTHING wrong with the economy. If that isn't the epitome of dumb, I don't know what is………..Vote for 4 more years of the same old and this is exactly what you'll get, but don't go blaming anyone else but yourselves for being soooooo stupid.

    This all started with Reagan, then daddy bush continued it. I have read this has been in the works for years. They want everyone poor but themselves. Idiot boy didn't do this (he is too stupid to organize a trip to the bathroom) it's daddy's people around him. These people are going to burn in hell for all the murders they have committed.

    well maybe now Unions will understand that some dickhead who spot welds hoods shouldn't be earning $150,000 a year. Its all bullshit, idiots who haven't even graduated highschool making this much a year? I hope GM goes bankrupt.

    Re: shan

    You are correct. The shit is going to hit the fan because our economy is based on a pyramid scheme at this point. The declines in the stock market and real estate are only just beginning. The pyramid is about to collapse.

    We are not in a recession! A recession, by definition, is two quarters of negative growth, we have not had any negative growth! Our growth, while very sluggish, has remained positive.

    Therefore, we are NOT in a recession.

  47. 47

    I'm sorry to say but GM deserves its downfall. I've been sold a lemon and GM refuses to fix the car. Its dealerships refuse to fix the problem and so one day the car will probably just kill me. So goodbye GM and lets welcome back Ford who brought us the assembly line and the most famous cars around that last and is supported by its dealerships and its corporate honchos.

  55. OIL says – reply to this
    55

    The price of oil is what's doing this, who can afford a big SUV or even $5 cup of coffee when it now costs $60 to fill up you car. We must drill on own own soil and fast. This same thing happened in the 70s and once OPEC saw we were commited to drill our own oil the price dropped overnight and not the 10 years some "people" want you to believe.

    For the love of god people, support your fellow Americans. Buy American cars (their quality is as good if not better than the foreign), look for the made in America label, shop at your local stores in liew of Walmart. You hit it on the nail, if GM goes down, we all go down. GM and Ford both had hydrogen combustion engines ready to go but Bush was unwilling to develop the infrastructure necessary (i.e. hydrogen fueling stations–lets face it Exon isn't going to build them), they also have fuel cell vehicles that are not too far from production ready, but again where will the people go to fuel up???? Bush would rather let his oil buddies drill in Alaska and kill the wildlife off their so they can make billions of dollars every year, then look at real long term renewable energy sources. When will Bush finally admit we are in a recession and do something about it. Get his fat cat oil companies to give us a break, clamp down on out of control medical costs, and build some roads and schools in USA (instead of Iraq). Get American's working.

    You fucking idiots (Susie, Shan, ZK…just to name a few). Are you that fucking retarded that you don't understand the simplest concept that the president doesn't dictate the economy? Are you so stupid that you can't figure out the people THEMSELVES caused the economic bubble that is now starting to deflate? Get over Kerry's and Gore's LOSS already!
    By the way, the whole economy is NOT crashing…it's correcting. The market will find a floor and will again move forward. Relax. GM's be screwing up for years. They got too big and too slow.

    What do we Americans think recession or depression? The dollar is weak the price of oil, food and clothes are up and our fearless leader George W. Bush says our economy is sound and we are not in bad shape. Guess who is in denial. I am sorry about GM and all the rest however it is all about supply and demand.

    u obviously don't know what a recession means.
    a recession is when there is negative growth for two consecutive quarters.
    but our economy GREW in the last quarter.
    maybe you should go back to school and get an education to know what a recession actually is before you say we are in a recession.

    Look Perez. Your fucked up, piece of shit President is fucking up so bad it is affecting the whole world. There's nothing, not one thing in America, Bush has NOT fucked up. Think of one thing. It is fucked up. See? So once America is fucked, then the whole world follows. It is simple economics. If you live here, no one makes shit any more. The went to foreign countries where they don't even speak English. They speak Indian, or Mexican, or Arab, or Korean, or whatever. But those people are poor in the first place, so they don't get paid much and their countries are all polluted.They don't even have water. So then, who the fuck can buy the shit all these people are making. Not us, bcz we don't have no jobs. So if GM can't sell cars, they lay people off. All over the world. And oil is expensive. Name one thing that is not affected by expensive oil. One thing. See? You can't. We need a new president.John McCain is senil
