GE: "We Bring Good Things to Life"

GE Saves $3.3 Billion With Cuts to Retirees' Life, Health Benefits
"Our program is consistent with trends among large companies," GE said in an e-mail. "It allows GE to offer greater choice in coverage while striking a balance among our obligations to employees, retirees, and shareowners."
This doesn't sound like bringing good things to life. Sounds more like financial imagination at work.

GE Plans New Ad Slogan To Replace 'Good Things'
After more than 23 years, General Electric Co. has decided to dump its well-recognized slogan, "We Bring Good Things to Life," and will spend more than $100 million to launch a new campaign with the tagline, "Imagination at Work" in a major, and possibly risky, effort to overhaul the company's image.
Ah, that explains it.

You can't spell genius without "GE".
Also, Tesla was a "nobody" and Edison was a "genius"!
Mark, as you might suspect you've hit a deep well.
