I've always considered GM more as a "Comedy of Errors" than a tragedy. Tragedy usually implies that there's a a force beyond our control involved like a hurricane or a unforseen death. GM's woes could have all been avoided. I see that company like a VW Beetle in the circus that pulls up and 26 clowns come piling out - except that the Beetle is an Aveo, and the clowns are corporate executives.
