All I can say is I am glad they recognize why they are still here. Great commercial and a great way to boost the new GM.

To me it's a slap in the face. They're still making over 100% profit on every automobile they sell. It's like saying, "Thanks for giving us your money, there's nothing you could do about it anyway!"
Just the fact that they claimed bankruptcy afterwards leaves a sour taste in my mouth...

how are you going to say gm marks **** up 100 percent and then start throwing around different examples than gm.. ford has nothing to do with this discussion.. GM is having to pay the government(us) back regardless of the Bankruptcy status.... You must not be very familiar with the audit process that goes on at these big companies.. I can tell you that GM profit margins are very small on everything but their trucks.. BTW which auto plant is it that you work at? and what is it you do there

That is factored in. I work at a auto plant and know first hand. For example Ford spends 12k total, parts, labor, everything on the Escape and sells a fully loaded Hybrid for 28k.
