Sort of.

Under a current proposal, existing stock owners would see their stake in the company decrease to 1%, Uncle Sam would control more than 50%, UAW would would get up to 39% (89% minus whatever gubmint gets), and other creditors 10%.

Oh, 21K more people to stand in line for government money.

Would they have to pay themselves income tax?



The above question assumes the company ever makes a profit.
