I own you.

The U.S. Government, which I think means, We the People, now own a controlling interest in the General Motors Car Company. I think this is great, because now the government can dictate what kind of cars they make.

It would probably be even better if we owned all the car companies that were allowed to sell cars in the United States. Then we could make cars and everyone that wanted a car would have to buy cars like the Soviet made Lade 2107, seen here. It was relatively cheap, easy on the gas mileage, relatively reliable and designed for easy repairs. And, it even came in red.

Fritz Henderson, the carmaker’s chief executive, recently let us in on the new idea that customers, cars and culture would be the company’s three priorities. I think he said, "As long as you customers buy these cars we will finally have a decent culture.".

I think now is the best time to get a Camry. Manufactured in Texas, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, Alabama and Mississippi by hardworking Americans who only expect to make money if they make and sell things that people are willing to buy.
