Frankly I am sick of them and glad they are bankrupt. Not enough large faceless companies go bankrupt. I will do what I can do bankrupt as many as possible, and will start by point out LINUX is MUCH BETTER THAN WINDOWS
-
y do u want it to go bankrupt ?
soo many ppl will get out jobs bcoz of tht :P doesnt help the crrent world crisis ....
dint xpect this from u :P
-
ooh are they :(
cant they wait until im 18 so i can purchase my dream car from them ..? :-\
-
Jobs lost at GM means jobs created elsewhere. And since elsewhere make better, more efficient cars we will all be better off.
-
i dnt think any firm is ready to take in ppl ...the amt tht will loose jobs :p
-
how can a business as big as GM go bankrupt?
i mean here in kuwait maybe 65% of the cars are from GM .. those people visit the service centres etc. and this happens all over the world .. not to mention the number of cars bought daily world wide from GM .. i dont understand how they go bankrupt .. TWICE !! :S
-
GM has been on the verge of nankruptcy for 30 years. It was always going to happen. There is not a car company in the west now maybe that is not in major trouble and begging for governement help.

sad thing .. so does that mean that companies like Hummer and Cadillac will also go bankrupt? =/
-
I think tGM will be broken up. Hummer will not go bankrupt cos they supply miltary vehicles, much in demand now.

I have a TATA car...pretty old it is though
it's sad in a way that GM motors is finally bankrupt
TATA group of companies is owned by Ratan Tata, son of Jamshedji Tata(a Parsi..so originally not from India...rich chaps from the very beginning..very helpful to the British during their reign in India...grew richer and richer)....They not only have TATA motors but also mobile services and Broadband services and TATA power( India's largest private power utility)

I know quite well the Tata is the worst Car company in the world, with a record for highly dangerous to the environment. The Longivity of the Nano in normal circumstances is 2 yrs. It pollutes 3 times as much as an average Ford. And most importantly, it is very unsafe, as its frail body is made of thin steel, 3 times thicker than and alluminium can's coating.
About GM, it does not deserve to make cars, Toyota provides the best cars, both frndly to environment and also cheap for the quality it provides. Rarely people comment badly about a Corolla.
GM should go bankrupt because all they do is spend money on buying expensive assets such as private jets. And the cars it makes are unpopular even in the US. It should stop wasting government money. However, if it does go bankrupt, the ppl it owes money to will get it over a lon perios of time hence, creating financial trouble for them.
However, it is not the GM company that is to be blamed completely, but rather the Western, especially American Banks that led to reduction in the availabity of finance, as they themselves went bankrupt and also led to others being so. Problem here really is credit speding and speculation. The western financial system is one that is "screwed up", it frankly does not work and the sophistication is far to advanced, causing loop holes to form, thus allowing financial gurus to take advantage of them.

That's right..TATA's cars are known to cause potential harm to the environment.....but I still feel sad for the employees of GM Motors
Toyota is amazing though :) Wish to see hybrid cars and the lot coming from their side
-
The employees of gm are also responsible for the company's bankruptcy. They fought like fury to protect their benefits, be the company in ever so much trouble.
-
yea gm are stupid, they should decrease their prices and try to sell as much as they can even with little profit, and reduce the number of employees and factories they have, then try to get more shareholders and new ideas..
-
my dada says that if u want to buy tata goods buy a truck
cause they use truck engine in their cars!!!
silly company
-
truck engine in their cars.
Actually for a car company that is a niche market.
-
u must see those cars
small and noisy!!
they pollute environment more than those of a factory
i wud rather chose a ford or audi as my car!!
my mom jst bought a chevy small one indeed
i think some world known company shud take over GM
rather than TATA
cause they will say TATA if they buy this GM
TATA=Bye in india

not all tata cars r noisy and small
It is India's largest company in the automobile and commercial vehicle sector
wiki
-
except for indigo and indigo CS i think only one remains Indica
that is = to all those which were left out
so i think all cars r noisy
it is pop in india cause i thnk there r no other indian car manu
if u think maruti is one
then they are 110% better than TATA

tata motors own jaguar too and land rover...
this wudnt have happened if their cars were "noisy and small"
-
this cud be done by maruti suzuki instead but they rnt
cause i thiink they will buy tata once they have conquered all the big shots!!!

hahaha
its not a cakewalk to conquer TATA after it has grown so much..
they will never be able to conquer it...
thats obv.
if they wud...they wud have to start by buying diff. automobile companies...e.g "jaguar and land rover"..which dey didnt...and thus TATA did
-
Any compamny that just buys others companies may well not succeed. eg GM
You have to make better cars eg toyota
-
Toyota would have a larger share of the market if they reduced the price of their cars....effective production....which TATA has done because of low labour costs in India
-
I dont think TATA sells cars in Britain under their own name. I don't think they would sell well. TATA doesn't sound like a sexy name for a car.

hahaha lmao that so true i love the idea!
-
has tata gone through ne vertical integration?!?
i think it must have some of its raw material producing companies in india
-
Vertical integration is bad in business. It means you have to know what too many people are doing.
-
haha
thats true
but y cant they jst take over a firm that supplies them wid raw material
that wud also be a vertical integration!!
-
a company has concentrate on something, concentrate on designing and making better cars.
-
thats true but wat about diversification?!?
that is the main reason for integration i think
-
If you diversify you have options other than making better cars
