Should the new GM start with a new name?

Philip Morris rechristened itself Altria. Blackwater became Xe

Wow, those names are completely full of suck.

All the good ones have been taken decades ago.

But on the bright side, Phillip Morris and Blackwater are available at bargain prices if GM wants to go for a name change.

According to Newsweek GM management wanted to close a parts distribution center in Massachussets but Barney Frank (D-Mass) vetoed it.

Vauxhall has a nice ring to it.

Since labor is so important in this, perhaps Studebaker would be a good choice.

It looks like the Democrats are bent on setting a textbook example.

I'm amazed they'd have a facility in Massachusetts at all.  They probably have to pay the grunts there like $60 an hour for completely unskilled labor.

In December I was in favor of ideas like nationalizing failing banks and car companies, but crap like this changed my mind. It is as though congress is trying to prove it is inefficient and corrupt.

Freedom Cars

Either this or Patriot Motors.

GM has new ads, saying how they're new, reinvented, and the only Chapter they're interested in is Chapter one, starting new (I assume as opposed to Chapter 11 or which ever one Bankruptcy is called).

So that gives another idea for a  new name - Chapter One Motors.

If you believe GM is really "new and reinvented" I have some beachfront real estate in North Dakota I'd like to sell you.

Since they are going through chapter 11 they should start as chapter 12. And since that is another form of bankruptcy it is also fitting since they will probably end up bankrupt again.
