I love when they get put into a total disaster situation like GM, make the scenario worst and then walk away with millions! If the "regular" mid-level exec in America performed vs goal like these guys, they be fired (and EXPECT to be fired!)...I need one of these crazy Sr Exec jobs! The Feds bailing everyone out jobs adds to my amazement...then I see my taxes and it adds to my anger...

Why should the rest of us pay to fund your R&D for fuel efficient cars you irresponsible bastard. Maybe if you hadn't been dragging your feet for 20 years and working hard to change the rules in your favor you would be ahead of the game WITHOUT our money. Man I hate that guy.

Unfortunately, Wagoner's management ability is also comparable to Durant's, and the main competition today has a hell of a lot better management than Ford had then. Can this guy really believe the crap he spouts? He compared the present conditions for GM to those of the first 20 years.
