No, we have really come to a sad state of affairs when people are willing to look the other way when it comes to completely incompetent companies that they continue to support, thinking they are saving the country!
I have supported GM enough. I have paid my taxes and they "borrowed" them in order to survive. When it comes to actually buying a car? Well, I would rather have something that is reliable that won't cost me yet more money to keep running. I'll stick with Ford and various imports for my vehicles. I don't make my major purchasing decisions based on saving or not saving someone else's job. When was the last time someone went out of their way to save your job? Yeah, that's never happened to me either!

I think you are going a little too far in calling GM a "Communist Company". Yes it is true they have made their mistakes, and yes it is true they took government money in the form of a loan and bailout, but they are not the only one's who have made mistakes. In their defense, at least they have not needed 2 bailouts like Chrysler...
