RW, > Any other civilized country with a 'enlightened self interest' would just bail them out.

You might not want to include Korea in your list of "civilized countries," since their record for bailouts isn't very stellar.

> You want GM to go under, with all the repercussions? I don't think the economy can absorb that right now.

I already stated my ideal outcome. GM declares bankruptcy and closes down half of its divisions. It survives, but in a much different form than what we're used to. The devil is in the details, but I think the economy can adapt.

By the way, this is similar to the "Good GM, Bad GM" plan being floated around, except that the "Bad GM" gets liquidated.
