I love cars but, I must admit, not any GM made. I don't always agree with Michael Moore but think his plan for GM's revival knocks anything the tired GM Executive presented to Obama for six. General Motors is dead, this is Great Motivation:

Goodbye, GM ...by Michael Moore (Click through for the full GM letter)

"1. Just as President Roosevelt did after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the President must tell the nation that we are at war and we must immediately convert our auto factories to factories that build mass transit vehicles and alternative energy devices. Within months in Flint in 1942, GM halted all car production and immediately used the assembly lines to build planes, tanks and machine guns. The conversion took no time at all. Everyone pitched in. The fascists were defeated."

"We are now in a different kind of war -- a war that we have conducted against the ecosystem and has been conducted by our very own corporate leaders."

"President Obama, now that he has taken control of GM, needs to convert the factories to new and needed uses immediately."

2. Don't put another $30 billion into the coffers of GM to build cars. Instead, use that money to keep the current workforce -- and most of those who have been laid off -- employed so that they can build the new modes of 21st century transportation. Let them start the conversion work now."
