Answer to Question 1

Wilson implies that all Americans benefit from policies that make GM more profitable. It is representative of the three-dimensional view of power in that it is an expression of power that is in many ways invisible. When GM is profitable, it will hire more workers and generate more business for the subcontractors who supply GM with parts, but it also tries to maximize its profits to its shareholders, a wealthy and powerful elite. In order to maximize profit, GM has a stake in keeping wages and taxes low and in minimizing interference from oversight agencies regarding safety standards, emissions standards, and the like.
