Employee Pricing - Good Job GM

In case you're thinking that I only attack General Motors: So GM has given it's employee pricing to everyone. Bold, brilliant and revolutionary! Is it a mystery why it is appealing to have straightforward, transparent and fair pricing instead of haggling with a salesperson and their imaginary manager? It works for every other product! (Except real estate).

Everyone is worried how they are going to stop the program. They can never stop the program. The program is an adjustment of prices to the actual value of the product in the marketplace. And everyone else who has artificially inflated and unsustainable MSRPs is going to have follow suit (Ford).

For the employees, yet another benefit that is lost.
