Al, > One more thing...flying corporate jets to washington to beg for a bailout may have minor economic value but it has immense public relation disaster potential, as we have learned.

True but that's just a small symptom of a larger problem. Both execs and unions reward themselves for a job poorly done.

By the way, I just flew first class for the first time last weekend. It was nice, but not that big of a deal. I can see why spoiled-ass CEOs would not want to give up their private jets.
