Um, ‘scuse me for saying so – but wasn’t that $25 billion or so of our tax dollars supposed to help put the kibosh on – oh, I dunno – this???
General Motors auditors have looked at the company’s dismal sales and its crushing debt and sky-high costs and said that the current factors “raise substantial doubt about [GM’s] ability to continue as a going concern.”
It may be hard to imagine a more grim report: Despite already cutting thousands of jobs, pledging to eliminate three brands and receiving more than $13 billion in government loans, GM — one of the Big Three U.S. automakers — is still on the brink.
Hmmm.  I definitely seem to remember that if they didn’t get that money RIGHT FUCKIN’ NOW!!!!!,  that was a-gonna be it for ol’ GM.  Yessirreebob™, they wuz a-gonna take their marbles ‘n go home, they wuz, ayup.
The company is seeking nearly $17 billion more in government aid to keep running. But today’s 402-page annual report said that even an influx of government cash may not be enough to keep GM in business.
So, basically, we’ve blown roughly $25 billion to the auto companies, and it hasn’t helped one.  Motherfucking.  Bit.  Do I have that about right?
Oh, BTW, anyone notice that Al-Obambi’s Down Jones took yet another nosedive into territory not seen in 12 years?
Nice going, Demoscum.  Dat dere’s summa dat Hopenchange™, it is, ayup.
