GM to build $500 million plant in Mexico

It's just one hypocrisy after another from Barack Obama. The president sold the taxpayer bailout of
General Motors by telling us that it was needed to save jobs. Obviously it doesn't mean American jobs
because Government Motors has decided to spend half a billion, taxpayer dollars, to build a new plant
in Mexico.
In my opinion the company shouldn't be allowed any capital expansion, especially outside the United
States, before it fulfills its obligation to the taxpayers of America. Until their debt is paid, they are
spending our money to construct a plant in a country that is contributing to the collapse of America. I
guess cheap labor trumps being loyal to your country; right Mr. President?
Then there’s GM rolling out their $41,000.00 golf cart, the Chevy Volt. If this company wasn't owned by
the government, there is no way that they would launch a new car that only has a 40 mile range. Who is
going to buy the Volt when they can buy a Nissan Leaf that has 500% more range, and costs
$10,000.00 less? And it gets better; the American taxpayer is going to subsidize every purchase of this
horrendous excuse of an automobile to the tune of $7,500.00 per car.
To top it all off; the president continued his summer self aggrandizing summer of love tour. This time
he was trying to sell Ford employees that even though their company didn't need a bailout; that they
benefited from the government takeover of General Motors. I don’t know how he stands in front of his
teleprompter with a straight face when he’s telling jokes this funny.
Have a great weekend…
