Another vote for Mullaly. The UAW likes to demonise his salary and claim he's overpaid compared to the factory workers. Yes, workers actually make the cars, but workers aren't worth shit if their leader leads them off a cliff (GM and Chrysler). If his job is so easy, then why did the CEOs of GM and Chrysler drive their companies to the ground and force a bankruptcy? Not just one CEO, but a long line of really bad CEOs at GM and Chrysler. Mullaly is worth every penny and more.

100% in agreement, and notice how your argument relies on comparing with his peers. If you had just stated that Mullay is a great CEO, it would just be your opinion. But by using compare and contrast, you build a valid argument.
