GM+Government=Fascism

We have plunged into the abyss of a new Dark Age to paraphrase Winston Churchill. By seizing control of GM, and coercing other major corporations to follow the "green economy" model for the future, the government has created the conditions for a new fascism replacing a relatively free market economy. As the CEO of GE recently said in a letter to shareholders: "in the future the government will be promoter, partner, and financier for the private sector." If past performance is a predictor of future results, we can hope to be at least as successful using this model as many western European countries have been in the last 50 years. If shared misery, stagnant growth, and rationed healthcare are our Nation's goals, we are well on our way.
