GM to announce cuts this morning

I don't know how much people in other parts of the country care or follow this stuff, but it's causing a lot of anxiety around here. They have said on the news that for every GM employee laid off in Michigan, 10 jobs are lost in other industries (service, retail, etc.) The rumors last week was that they were going to get rid of Saab, Hummer, Pontiac, Buick and Saturn. The big announcement is at 8:30 this morning and Detroit is sitting on pins and needles. Our state is already such a mess. Personally, I'm hoping they don't get rid of Pontiac or Saturn because I've got my eye on one of each for my next car and I won't get the GM employee discount through my dad on them if they are no longer GM, but that's a relatively small dilemma compared to the number of people who could lose jobs...

More blight in Michigan, I'm afraid...
