Explain this one to me....this is from an article I was reading on yahoo news..

"GM this month said it lost $4.2 billion in the third quarter and almost $73 billion since the end of 2004."

They've been getting run into the ground for 4 years yet...

"The GM CEO got $14.4 million in compensation in 2007, including a salary of $1.56 million."

$13 million in Bonuses...for what???? Running the company into the Ground...i'll do that for them for 1/2 that.....Amazing
