The big problem is what they said when asked if they would give up their healthy salaries as a show of good faith. Saying no was absolutely ridiculous and may have cost them the chance at low-interest loans from the government. Lee Iacocca did it in the 1980s with Chrysler and he was repaid 10-fold. Them not making that show of good faith was a big mistake. In addition to writing to our representatives (which I think is great), we should be writing letters to the CEOs as well. They need to know that they have to put skin in the game.

FWIW, Consider this, your argument should go both ways.
