DETROIT (WKZO) -- The U.S. government is expected to lose more than 25-billion dollars on the 85-billion dollar auto bailout.

According to a new Treasury Department report, this is 15-percent higher than originally projected.  The report covers predicted losses through the first five months of the year when General Motors stock was selling for over 22-dollars a share.

The government still holds 500-million shares of General Motors stock.
