I urge the American Public to help save GM (and maybe Chrysler.. If we are lucky) by boycotting them. Let's start a movement that we will not buy any GM/Chrysler products until the following actions are taken:
1) Both Companies file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization
2) The head of the UAW, Ron Gettelfinger , resigns, just like the GM's Rick Wagoner.
3) No one associated with the Government is appointed to the board of Directors and all government oversight is suspended.
4) No more tax payer funds are given to the either company.
5) Congress and the president cease and desist from passing anymore laws that try to force the automobile manufacturers to build "politically correct" cars that NOBODY REALLY WANTS.
The five above actions will force GM (and maybe Chrysler) to become productive, viable businesses . If they don't, then they go the way of the buggy whip. Don't worry, we will still build cars in America, but they will be built by companies that make a profit and don't rely on taxpayer largesse. Like the rising of the Tea Parties across America, it is the grass roots that are going to have to stand up to the really bad decisions being made in DC. If enough people take the pledge, the quicker the much needed overhaul of the Detroit automobile business will occur. Pass the word. My next car will be either a Ford or an American built transplant until unless the above 5 actions are taken. Let your Senator and Congressman know how you feel.
