The Treasury announced Monday that it sold its remaining shares in GM, whose U.S. brands include Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC. But the automaker may want to hold off an ad blitz this time around. That's because the final chunk of a progressive sell-down means we can finally total the losses, and the bill for taxpayers is $10.5 billion.

But in this case it was the UNIONS who got bailed out! Even to the point of taking private equity from it's rightful owners and just flat out giving it to the unions!
