Pay backs are lovely. Corker is now whining that GM may close their plant in Tennessee. He calls it politically motivated. Duh... of course it is. If I were GM I would want to operate in states that appreciate employers who provided good jobs, good product with a positive political climate. Sorry for the employees there who might lose their jobs but then no one cried for us as we bled jobs and bennefits. Hope Bob loses his job for trashing American car manufacturers!

Marketing 101 never lose sight of your core consumer base.

Outside of the "rust belt" few care about the survival of the Big Three. It is obvious that all three need to downsize. If I were them, I would relocate plants back to this "Rust Belt". If they re-centralized back here, they would be rewarding the customers that stayed loyal through thick and thin. Give us the jobs and we will proudly build and buy the product.
