I disagree on this one, while they're paying back a govt loan and the public is expected to take a loss, they shouldn't be allowed to get paid that much.
 
(Reuters) - General Motors Co (GM.N) denied on Tuesday media reports that the automaker asked U.S. officials to allow for a pay increase of more than 20 percent for Chief Executive Dan Akerson.

The largest U.S. automaker submitted a request to U.S. officials to pay Akerson $9 million for 2013, about the same as his 2012 and 2011 pay packages, GM said in a statement.

Compensation of GM executives is governed by a special paymaster from the U.S. government as part of provisions put in place after GM's U.S.-funded bankruptcy restructuring in 2009.

GM's statement came after reports that GM wanted to pay Akerson $11.1 million for 2013.
