Interesting prospective on the UAW...

http://seekingalpha.com/article/1366...-giving-up-mor....

I'd told my father in law for years that the UAW would kill the auto
industry. He's retired GM UAW. When he was working, we'd get into huge
arguments when they were undergoing contract "negotiations." All I heard
was the union rhetoric... "we want, we want, we want." They completely
lost sight of the fact that they had a JOB! And a well paying job at
that... yet they wanted more. He has admitted now, that he's lucky that he
is retired.

Unions could not survive without the development of discontent and fostering
the growth of greed. *Hate to say it, but they are about bullying people and
companies. *Sort of like mini organised maffia of sorts.

You bunch make me laugh on here. The reason being you're blind to the
truth in the matter.
What about the VERY highly paid execs, who milked GM out of millions?
They're never mentioned...funny. Waggoner should be shot.
I'd say the " workers " are the LEAST greedy of the whole bunch. If
there was no Union, we'd all get 8 bucks an hour. Try living on that,
in todays " greedy " inflated economy.

That would be $8 an hour *without* any health care coverage, without any
pension, without any fringes, and in an unhealthy, really dangerous
workplace.

Workers, after all, exist only to increase the wealth of the rich.
That's part of the Republican credo. :)

You really can sling it.

None of those conditions exist, haven't for a long time and you know it.
It's simply the union mantra.

Yeah, they do exist. There are plenty of places that pay **** an hour,
are unsafe, and offer no health care coverage or any other fringes. Get
out and smell the chemicals.

Do something to make yourself more valuable.
Sorry to be so blunt, but it's the truth.
You cannot expect to be paid as much as someone else who has worked to
acquire skills and capabilities greater than yours, just because you exist.
