You're kidding, right? GM hasn't truley been profitable since 1986. The unions are a problem, sure, but the lackluster styling, and cookie-cutter designs from division to division are also to blame. Add to that the fact that they have an annoying habit of introducing a great model, and then cutting options for every year thereafter, and you have a recipe for disaster. Blaming the union is just trendy for them, and you fell right into it. When Ford started having problems, they cut white-collar jobs. When GM started having problems, they blamed the union. See a pattern here?
