I say, let them go bankrupt. Its gonna cost more long term at this point to keep giving them money to stay afloat, then it would cost to use stimulus money to re-employ all GM's workers. They have been building bad expensive cars for 30 years, its their fault. And its all our fault for buying them (although I own a BMW myself)
I saw an ad the other day, the Esclade Hybrid. The ad said it gets better gas milage then a Mini Cooper S. HA, funny, maybe if you drive the Mini in 2nd gear all the time. My 86' BMW 535i gets 22-24 any given day, only cost me $1,000, is 23 years old, and preforms better then a new, $50,000 Esclade Hybrid.
to hell with the US Auto industry. Ford will survive, let the rest burn
