    This company got bailed out last year by Uncle Sam only to go into bankruptcy. Now having emerged out of bankruptcy, it wants $33 per share (presumed to be the largest IPO offer to date). Does this make sense?

    Why isn't the same offer being extended to countless people who declared chapter 7 or the like?
     
  2. they get even better offer of going straight to heaven. GM never got a nice break like that but then again it does not have a soul...

    Jim "Shortie" Jones Out :cool:

    Government supported SCAM. Like Social Security, Fannie, Freddie and others, it could go on for a while.
     
  4. scam
     
  5. it'll probably sell off at the open...... how timely is it? IPO coming out just when F is at 52wk high. GM is garbage..........i'd still say the same even if my father worked for GM.

  8. its a scam only in the sense that the value of the ipo
    is funded by me you and everybody else or maybe our kids
    or their kids.

    its kind of silly.
