If you Jagman are so damn bright, then give me an example of who you thing should run GM. Give me some names.

Running any manufacturing company in the US is almost an impossible job these days. Almost all the car companies are doing poorly. The great majority of manufacturing companies are doing poorly. It's the environment that's not conducive to manufacturing in general. It's the government, the unions, the MSM and the like.

Are you one of these Chicken *hit Military lawyers that makes it near impossible for our military men to do their jobs? What do you know about the auto industry or manufacturing. Have you ever run any type of manufacturing company?

I could do a better job!

File for bankruptcy and get it over with! Asking the government to ‘help’ with anything is a big mistake. It causes more problems than it solves.

At one time in a prior career I was an automotive journalist in Detroit, and I interviewed Mr. Wagoner on several occasions. He was a prototypical GM finance guy who rose through the ranks with no special attributes that would have singled him out to run one of the largest corporations (actually, the MODEL for Drucker’s “Concept of the Corporation” so long ago) in the world. He's a boxed in thinker who believes more of the same will be good enough. I hate Obama, but if he fired Wagoner, I give him credit (at least until he announces that Barney Frank will replace him...)

It sounds like you're calling me out. Why?

[Positive]

Good points truthguy...and don't forget, Wagonner was taking a $1 salary for this year...

Will the new CEO work for less???

Ain't it the truth. And it's damn ironic that it's the government, which is the primary cause of the problem, that is doing the firing (and hiring).

Unbelievable, really.
