What are any of you even talking about? This guy is trying to run one of the worlds' largest and most complex companies, and you think it is some sort of scam? Why? Because the salary he makes is so great? More than 1000 professional athletes worldwide make more than he does. Does that make sense? I hardly think so.

So, why don't you geniuses shut up? Unless, of course, you have experience running trillion dollar companies. If so, then you apply for the job, appear on the cover of every newspaper weekly, and see what it's like to have your every decision examined under this level of scrutiny.

Because we, the taxpayers had to bail their fat asses out to the tune of one hundred eighty seven billion dollars.
I fail to understand where you feel that we ruffled your feathers by even making a commit!
Nobody on wall street knows how add 2+2 in my opinion! At least an athlete is entertaining!

No way I'd take that job. Designed to fail. We're lucky to have him.
