~ Cross posted from RightMichigan.com with a bonus here. ~ Potential GM Stock buyers? Don’t get your hopes up. Not that anybody should expect an industry that still has a shock collar of union interest around its neck to do very well anyway. General Motors is selling some of...
Very few people, and likely NONE in political circles could think of much else except social security when talking about “third rail” politics. The mere discussion of changing it can literally affect in a matter of hours, the percentages an official, or would-be official receives in a given electoral...

When Iacocca turned Chrysler around in the 80s, it was by innovation and a “bailout” loan by government which also required additional private financing and external arrangements… Compromises were made by...
RightMichigan.com points out the seemingly immediate success of the Michigans government’s M.E.G.A. plan to offer GM $120 Million in tax incentives to generate results in Flint, MI.
