Lets make it about bankruptcy code, then. What in bankruptcy code protected and paid off the UAW 100%, while the bondholders were put to the back of the line? The "law" was made up as the case went along.

I would hope the current CEO does not have that same mentality. IMO, the perfect CEO for any car company would be a 'car guy' type who also knows how to run a business/corporation.

No, it was Akerson. MT reported it a few months ago. "I almost think that being a car guy right now isn't the best thing, because car guys drove it over the edge."
