You have got it all wrong, these companies didnt fail because of the leadership of a few people they failed because of their social policies towards workers and unions. You cannot be competitive when you are paying your workers 4 times as much as foreign car companies. This guy would have been burned at the stake had he suggest a 75% pay cut for GM workers. One man leaving GM is not going to save it, public money will not save it either, only shedding of jobs will save it. Why arent you mad at Obama for giving YOUR money to failed businesses?
