Is there a correlation between corporate jets and lack of profitability? Of course there is. The real tell in all of this is each company seems to have nearly the same number of jets per company. A pissing contest? I think so. This is stupid. No, it isn't stupid. You're stupid. And to call a comment stupid shows exactly how ignorant you really are. Eight corporate jets for one company suggests a company that has little to no fiscal responsibility. If it were an outlier, that is, the rest of the company is operating soundly and is very profitable, my complaints would be muted.....although I would still object. However, by almost every metric, GM has proven to be an abject failure......it can't design cars that keep if from losing market share; it has misjudged the markets over and over again; after years of trying, its cars are still not quality successes; it has worked to the detriment of its customers and this country.....the list goes on and on. And here you sit trying to put the blame on the unions....the people who are at the end of the food chain, not at the top. This is the same convoluted logic that prompted you to vote for Bush twice and to support the Iraqi war.
