GM's Baltimore Plant Targeted for Closing
By JOHN PORRETTO, AP Auto Writer

DETROIT - General Motors Corp.'s 68-year-old Baltimore assembly plant is the
only major GM factory targeted for closing as part of the automaker's new
tentative agreement with the United Auto Workers, union leaders told local
presidents Sunday.


A 68-year-old auto assembly plant? A plant built in the 1930s? A
pre-World War II factory?

No wonder GM finds it hard to compete. I'm sure it has been modernized
that plant over the years, but the age of the facility speaks volumes
about what is wrong with the management of America's car manufacturers.

No kidding. Management should have shut it down years ago in favor of
opening a more profitable non-union plant. I guess it took 68 years of
"negotiations" with UAW to finally win concessions for closing the place.

We need more evidence you are an anti-union asshole? You've already
proved it. I wonder how many active or retired union members you have as
patients.

Active? Probably close to zero...not counting NEA members. Retired?
Probably many...but I've always maintained that unions have had their
necessary place in history. Today, they're just a parasite on our economy.

Unions are less a parasite on our economy than you are a parasite on our
society.

Ahhhh. The Krause book of "relativisms" rears its head once again.

Other Harry relativisms:

"Unions don't steal as much as corporations"

"Union brass aren't as corrupt as corporate management"

"Unions are less a parasite...than you"

What he fails to realize is that, with each relativistic statement, he
admits that unions really are a corrupt bane on our nation.

Puh-lease. You're a 30-year-old twerp with no life experiences who went
from college to Florida to be a dentist. Call back when you're 45 and
been kicked around a bit, eh?

Oh, that was really good Harry!

You really are slipping with your personal insults. You need to brush up for
the coming election season.

True, in many companies, but in others the same factors that made unions
necessary are still at work. Take your favorite Walmart, a company that
ignores the law and intimidates their workers to work of the clock,
perhaps a union should be in their future.

Please provide ANY evidence that the plat was kept open for 68 years
because of "negotiations with the UAW to finally win concession for
closing the place."
