I fail to understand why they are axing Saturn & Saab, when those two are pretty much the only divisions still respected, and the only ones building somewhat efficient small cars. Was this their former CEO's "last wise recommendation"? Ax the rest, keep those two!

"Give Us Another Chance" For what?-Another chance to drain the American taxpayer?

And your reasoning for blaming the entire problem on the union (and/or workers who do the actual work) is...?

Well?

I gave reasoning when pointing my index finger. I wish others would be as thoughtful and put in some reasoning into their arguments...

CEOs, when justifying their increasingly mammoth paychecks and bennies often said their decisions can make or break a company.

Guess whose decisions broke GM? Wanting workers to make and promote more SUVs than anything else, made with garbage products as "planned obsolescence"...

Certainly not the union stewards...

Why should the CEOs be given another chance? All they did was cut corner after corner and let everyone else take the blame, for the first time ever because they're usually too busy justifying their great salaries.

Heck, they get to keep their severance packages too. $20 mil for destroying a company, where can I sign up?
