I agree totally! If they bail out the big 3, then I want a bailout too! It would be nice to have a paid for house and not have bills piling up.

Me TOO!! And I promise to stay solvent and will slit my wrists if I fail. Get Wagoner and Gettlefinger to sign in blood that they will commit harry carry if the bailout fails to produce a profitable car company in the USA....

Did you see the dateline on this story? It's March 31, 1988 - more than 20 years ago.
 
Still, I'm glad to see that you've kicked the copy & paste habit.

To give the UAW credit for the middle class is highly ridiculous. They may have contributed to a small exent, but it is 2008, not 1940, and now they are helping destroy it.
 
Sounds like you have no clue and or rational answer for the greatest middle class in history. Changing the subject isn't going to change history or fact.

If I were Mullaly, I'd have told the senate where to stick their corporate jet comment as well. You act as if the CEO does nothing to earn that salary - unlike the union, there is no leverage they hold over the stockholders head to get that salary, the market pays for guys with their talents and skills, just like a football player. It seems extreme to us, but you'd take it if you could get it, you know you would.

If you had a tryst with Kenny and GW, you too could get on the public dole. Quid Pro Quo

A GED from MIT isn't worth much these days.
 
During the past two weeks, while CEO Dave Edmondson has found himself forced to resign after admitting he had lied about his college education — and faced scrutiny about charges of driving under the influence — the company and its executives have behaved with arrogance and a lack of openness. This attitude does a great disservice to the legacy of RadioShack as a local corporate leader.
 
Upon Edmondson’s resignation, Claire Babrowski was named as interim successor. But when this announcement came from Len Roberts, former CEO and now executive chairman, Babrowski was nowhere to be heard or seen.
 
Roberts, who had proclaimed just over a year ago that Edmondson was the obvious choice to succeed him, was all of a sudden tight-lipped. (Overall, the public-relations work at RadioShack has been abysmal, almost non-existent.)
 
Edmondson’s fate is tinged with corporate tragedy. He had risen at a youthful age, from virtually nowhere, to become the leader of a large public company. And he was undone by fibbing on his résumé and what appears to be an alcohol problem.

No, but I did see Alabama put it on the Alburn Tigers.

Just what does a story about a 3rd rate electronics junk store chain have to do with the mess the UAW has created for the Big 3?
