I suppose what most people
I suppose what most people don't realize is the fact that GM has already repaid the loan, and did so in 1/5th of the time alloted. And, of course, offering buyout options for workers at retirement age/seniority CUTS GM's costs, not increases them. The reason is these blue collar workers are replaced by entry-level employees at half the cost. It saves money. Of course, I'm sure the author has done this math, instead of spouting off about something they themselves didn't research for more than an hour on Fox News. Right?
