    GM paid their loan back FYI. That's not the same as Corporate Welfare that Republican/conservatives ignore while whining about welfare to the poor.


    Earlier today, General Motors announced that the company paid $4.7 billion to the U.S. government and $1.1 billion to the Canadian government, fulfilling its obligation agreed to when it received its initial bailout funds. In total, GM received $52 billion from the U.S. government, but only $6.7 billion of this amount was considered a loan. The company already paid back $2 billion, so this $4.7 billion is the last payment.
    This doesn’t mean that “Government Motors” is no more. Despite the payback, the government still owns a controlling portion of the restructured GM. The United States will eventually relinquish its ownership, but this will take some time. Even when the new GM completes its initial public offering, the U.S. government will still be an owner for some time.

    As for your comment regarding CEOs donating to Hillary.......you are aware that Republicans are responsible for Citizens United, which allows for unlimited contributions to Super Pacs, which many Republican Candidates make use of? And just as many CEOs contribute to Republican candidates, so it looks like you are the one that needs to get informed?
