American taxpayers still own the majority of General Motors, but that investment is looking a lot more attractive after the fallen giant paid back a multi-million dollar lifeline years ahead of schedule. And analysts expect them actually turn a profit in 2010, all of which seemed unthinkable one year ago.
But after years as a tragic punchline, the people of General Motors could smile today.
"As of today, General Motors has repaid in full and with..."
And after wiring 5.8 billion dollars back to the Treasury, GM announced they will ramp up production at this plant in Kansas City and another in Detroit.
"This is the future you hope."
And the Chevy Volt that electric would be game changer will hit the market in October months earlier than expected.
"I think people should be very optimistic about the fortunes of General Motors that they're really doing very well."
So how did it happen? Well, cash for clunkers and Toyota's P.R. nightmare helped a bit. But mostly it was bankruptcy which lightened their financial burdens like bloated union pensions. A line of well reviewed vehicles in the pipeline for years is finally catching on with the public and with the bailout came a massive shake-up in management.
