@Brian_E: As a consumer (and here’s my Econ background coming into play again), I’n not OBLIGATED to suggest any path or plan to GM. As I mentioned much earlier on this thread, I think it would be somewhat preposterous for me to suggest a plan to GM. I’m not IN GM, so I’m not privy to GM’s cost structure, or any other factors germane to GM that would influence WHAT a revived Pontiac would look like, or what reviving the brand would involve. To me, that’s GM’s business. Further, since it doesn’t matter to me HOW Pontiac returns, even MORE so: Why should I dictate? By the way, as a liberal, I supported the Occupy Wall Street movement. Yes, that movement didn’t have a central, organized vision, but there’s no law that said it HAD to. The movement STILL made a point, and the movement spread to many major American cities outside of the state of New York. Again, as a consumer I’m not OBLIGATED to offer a “solution” to GM, and besides: Who am I to offer a solution? I’m willing to leave solutions to GM. What I’m saying to GM is: “As a consumer, all I care is that you revive Pontiac. I’m not about to dictate HOW you should do it. That’s entirely up to you. Revive the brand, and if you have to change it from the way it was before, by all means do so. I trust your judgment and automotive expertise.”
