I think the best thing GM could do for itself is close all facilities in Michigan and get the hell out of that state.
It's kind of a bummer that they're closing the Moraine plant - that's in south Dayton (IIRC) near where I went to HS and where my grandparents live. With the past plant closures in that area, WPAFB down-sizing, and everything else that's hit, Dayton's turned into a shithole and this is only going to make it worse. Likely much worse.

But yes, I'd be all for seeing them close all the plants in Michigan and move them to Ohio...[/b]
I grew up about a half hour from Dayton. I don't ever recall it NOT being a shit hole.

(I qualify that by saying my hometown was an even bigger shit hole)
