Chinese Spy Trial Starts Today
 
It will be interesting to see what comes of this.

A chinese couple in Detroit is on trial for stealing hybrid electric vehicle secrets from GM with intent to sell them to Chery, a chinese automaker.

Here is an older article from the indictment.

US citizens - jail!

I find it interesting that GM says the info is worth 40 million.

Had those two been up to this in China stealing from their employer they would've caught China's most lenient punishment for industrial espinoge, a bullet through the brainpan. Twenty years is lenient. Mebbe we'll get them to build a wall on our southern border?:rolleyes:

$40 Million, that's the cost of one Volt - right Pete?:D

This whole thing is stupid. Everyone knows the Volt sucks. The right will tell you so. No one would pay money to learn about its technology. Right?

Yes, but there's a gov't subsidy to the tune of 39,960,000 :D

There's $10,000 rebate that you missed, Pete. (plus a lifetime of free gas!) Must've been the stuff & things O'Reilly was blathering on about?;)LOL
