Every time I see a promotion featuring the NEW GM I get angry because of the thought of my GM Bonds that became virtually worthless. The new GM of the new General Motors talks about how happy he is about the NEW GM business position & how the company is helping out the public with their new programs. Well, how about the investors who lost out because GM thru them to the bus? Just offer us a discount or credit worth 1/2 of our GM losses towards a new GM car. Oh wait, now I can’t afford the insurance or upkeep!

RE: Ed Whitaker GM/ATT Just goes to prove what we have said for years. These highly paid CEOs don’t give a damn about their shareholders. All they care about is “what can I get from this company and how large of a salary can I get out them and how big of an exit package can I walk away with”????
Whatever happened to getting paid for your performance and making a successful company? What ever happened to the Henry Fords, Sam Waltons and R. O Andersons?

Really disgusting. It makes most folks just give up and think it is impossible to reign in this horror visited upon all of us and the companies they cleaned out. I have worked with a bonus/incentive almost my entire life and I never, never, ever received one damn dime when my company lost money. So, 99.9% of us work to acheive more, to build upon and learn from our mistakes and the rest profit from their futility, greed and incompetance and seemingly never are held accountable.
