Gozer Requests Your Presence At Tea...

Gozer, the Gozerian
I read about a woman at a Tax Day Tea Party who said that the firing of Rick Wagoner from GM was the "last straw" for her. Of course, just before he was canned, Mr. Wagoner caused some other problems. As reported in Crains Detroit Business, a Mr. Stiers of GM was giving a presentation to some group, and he mentioned that GM's CEO - Mr. Wagoner - would truly love to see all parts supply outsourced overseas: 100%. This ruffled feathers of the American parts suppliers, many of whom are in the habit of patiently waiting for GM to get around to eventually paying them. It is like they said in Ghostbusters: choose the form of the Destructor; you will be destroyed when the Iconic representative of Capitalism is a man who wished to send every American job he could to somewhere else. Your choices are limited, and they are not good: rock and a hard place.
