Re: GM to return two leased jets amid criticism

Here is a funny thought, last year Wagoner made what, 15.7 million??? Lets go 15 million even, that works out to 1712.30 every hour of every day. So if he spends 2 hours in line, an hour on the plane there, and hour back and another 2 hours messing around to get home that is 10, 200.00. Lets not forget all the people that tag along too...

So yeah agree it looks bad and could certainly be trimmed but the CEO's of large companies live in another universe from us, private jets can save money overall.

I think its worse that none of them have volunteered to cut their wages to help out. Just shows the arrogance...wtf does this guy do with all his money?? Most people think 100K a year is living pretty good, it would take you 147 YEARS at 100K to make what he makes in ONE year!!! You'd think he would be a little smarter with how he presents himself, the issues and the company, I mean really what is he being paid for??
