General Motors and TARP Loans

May 2, 2010 2 comments

I thought it odd when recent TV ads from the CEO of General Motors claimed that the company had paid back its government loans.  I wasn’t aware that the company had been selling any additional cars thereby generating extra revenues.  Well, apparently through – oh, just a wee bit slight of hand accounting practices, GM is able to claim it has paid back the loan.  However, the truth is, GM hasn’t paid back anything.
