I am going to move to Ireland. They need electricians there." With that, he belted out a very nice traditional tune (I can't remember the name). He had a sweet voice and a fine flare with the guitar. No doubt, we will miss him here. But, Ireland gains.

But Cheney's Halliburton stock increased over 3000% last year! Woo hoo!
Too big to fail?
It depends on how Delphi came to be in its current precarious position. If they were merely squeezed into unprofitability, they can probably raise prices and cut costs enough to survive. If they've been cooking the books to keep up appearances, they're dead.
It's standard practice to sweeten the pot for must-have execs at a time of crisis. I'm surprised Delphi's stock didn't rise on the news.
