GM files for bankruptcy protection.

Today I'm glad I dumped my GM stocks last year. It was at a staggering 80% loss - sold to cover the tax liability on realized gains earlier in 2008. While I did not like their management style and the way the culture in the company is (basically, it was [is] a war between the management and the union), I do not like the current situation either.

The government has grown way too powerful and the taxpayers now own major chunks of companies affected by the recession. It is not the government's job to own corporations. The taxpayers have no business in running the corporate America. Let the investors deal with the economy. I do not fall for the fallacy that it was the deregulation that caused this mess. It was time to pay the piper for our reckless lifestyles.
