GM'S CFO Young

Ray Young is a smart guy who came to his current position after the slippery slope began. He was in South America, I believe, prior to coming to Detroit, and has only been the CFO since about 07 or 08. He is a car guy who cares. Worry more about GM looking outside the auto industry to replace him. Think Zarella... he wasn't CFO, but he knew nothing about cars, didn't care either, and set the path for more destruction with the North American operations. Now they've got some yahoo as Chairman of the Board. The guy probably hasn't driven his own car in ages, let alone, knows what anything under the hood is. Why can't they find car guys who know business? When will people wake up and realize the auto business is unlike any other?

HOw about Cowger getting a seat on the board of Delphi? Pure BS.

GM and Obama had the bankruptcy judge change rules that had been in effect for over 200 years to help GM out.

LET US NEVER FORGET

GM and Obama have screwed to many people to stay in business past 2012. They screwed employees,suppliers, dealers,investors and taxpayers. Do you think that many of these people will buy GM products? Do you think these same people will want to invest in GM when it goes public again? If you don't sell cars you don't stay in business unless you move your operation overseas where it is much cheaper.

I also reported that it has been reported by Washington that GM will never be able to pay back all the so called LOAN that Obama gave them. TAXPAYERS MONEY

Why is this man still employed by GM. He was at the financial helm during GM's fall into bankruptcy. Who should take the blame. Looks to me that Young is the guy who should have stopped mortgaging GM out of business. Whose in charge at GM these days. Looks like everyone is out to lunch.
