How come you idiots keep blaming American workers whether they are
in a
union or not. Obviously you are running a quicker mart or whatever
and
paying your wage slaves 7.50 an hour no benefits and fire them
before 6 mos.
Labor costs are a big part of gm's problem. Unfortunately the unions,
in their zeal, helped cause the problem. I mean let's face it, where
else besides auto plants could you get $25 - $30 dollars an hour for
semi-skilled labor. And the retirement programs are turning out to be
extremely costly. They were not based on your condtributions into an
account like today. They were fixed payouts based on your years of
service. A lot of those semi-skilled laborers retired at a fairly
young age and many get $50k or more a year in retirement.

What's your point, that a representative of assembly line works met
at the bargaining table with the employer of those workers and
negotiated a contract?
Negotiated a contract? I don't believe that for a minute.

That's the way it is supposed to be.
Who are we going to threaten with a strike this year?

The fix we are in right now has nothing to do with union workers and
everything to do with the landed aristocracy in this country of Wall
Street financial manipulators and corporate executives, and the
hands-off regulatory style of the Bush Administration. Even now, the
crooks in the Bush Administration won't tell us who is getting the
bail-out money.
It has to do with union labor.

It's a wonder you know how to tie your shoelaces in the morning.
It's the greed of everyone involved in the auto industry....led by the
example of the senior management and the stupidity of the American
consumer always wanting bigger & better when durability, practicality,
efficiency and quality should have been the criteria.

What's the name of that big Canadian car company?

Generel Motors Windsor Assembly Plant. See if Donny can spot the typo.

On a pass/fail basis that would clearly be a *fail*. Even I was
surprised to see that. Donnie is dumber than I thought.

That is still not a Canadian car company.

That is still not a Canadian car company.

The vast majority of our auto plants are branches of international
companies..such as GM, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda etc.
There is a small company producing electric vehicles that aren't cleared for
use on canadian roads.
Here's some interesting data from 2002...
