Blame both GM and the unions. The plant closing is due exclusively to neither
party.

However, with increased automation in an attempt to cut costs, union labor
workforces
have been cut...perhaps due to the high costs of those union workers.

One also has to wonder about the efficiency of an old plant like that and
whether or
not GM attempted to modernize it to keep it as efficient as possible.

I would have to agree. The way they make cars these days, it doesn't matter
very much if the guys on the line are getting
$8 an hour or a decent, living wage.

Being competitive today is more about robotics and automation than whether the
workforce has been hired for the lowest conceivable dollar. There aren't as
many man hours in a car as just several years ago.

The old plant was probably not suitable for upgrade to the next generation of
automation. That would be a death knell, even if they had convict labor working
for
35 cents an hour.



What auto worker do you know that is making $8/hour? Try $26-$30/hour plus another
$35/hour in benefits.

Poor Jim/Dennis...can't even compete with a blue collar auto worker.

Based on the intention of that remark, you obviously think little of the blue collar
auto worker you claim to defend. You are a total farce.

Notice that he never disputes the Dennis/Jim thing? Funny, him calling
someone else a farce. I'll bet he's neither Jim nor Dennis.

Maybe a wash out auto worker named Denice?

Maybe he's Skipper?

Not a chance. This fluffer (I love that) makes Skippy look like a genius.

He's just another right-wing rectal fissure, full of pus.

Harry,
Do you honest believe calling someone a fluffer has any content whatsoever.

You have to have a sense of humor Bill. Don't sweat it, maybe next life.

The concept of people having 2 or three names is beyond you I guess. Yes, my full
name is James Dennis. If you include my confirmation name it is James Dennis Thomas.
So what is there to dispute?

What kind of name is jps?
