Here is a solution for GM that will work.

Each and every employee of GM is to buy stock in the company. Proceeds
will be used to fund GM financial needs.

Workers owning the company? Isn't that communism?

Nope. Not at all. Some very successful companies have many employees
financially involved it its well being. Which is precisely GMs problem,
making them shareholders diffuses 30 years of union rant.

For example, say people are not buying a model of car. Having 1600 plant
employees hammering on invested management is going to see change quickly
and decisively. For it they don't they too loose. Nice motivation. But if
they are successful, $3 becomes $6 becomes $60.... And most importantly,
turn their brains back on how capitalism is supposed to really work.

But then again, the only thing UAW/CAW wants is a free lunch on the rest of
us. Change? Why change? Just like deer looking into headlights. No
consideration at all on who bails out the many more thousands who have lost
jobs, just a me-me attitude of selfishness. Tax then for us attitude is
just ludicrous.

Buzz Hargrove knew when to save his ass. Bet he locked in his pension
before Chrysler "adjusts" it.
