    Neutron Jack, lead the vanguard of outsourcing/offshoring to low wage countries.

    No one will miss Jack.

    Hey that wasn't too nice. I just helped out my momma putting in a GE microwave over her stove on Saturday.

    RIP

    All I know is that he attended the University of Illinois at Champaign/Urbana down the road from my town.

    He used to be a Fighting Illini until "political correctness" made the Chief leave town.

    Jack Welch reversed the downward spiral into obsolescence GE was headed towards in a global economy. He also held middle managers accountable for poor performance. These are both noteworthy accomplishments for a company the size of GE.
