I’m not going to read everything right now, for i am too lazy.

One quick point… Even though wages are $15-$25/hr (dependent on trade) the company pays nearly 3x’s this for the insurance/benefits/union.

somebody on the line making $50K/year is costing AAM nearly $150/year just because they are union. Keep the wages the same, remove the uniong and AAM literally cuts their labor costs in half.

That alone is enough of a reason to delete the unions from the equation. (not to mention being held accountable for job performance on not being protected by the union where it’s almost impossible to ge fired)

fucking amen to that.

I think the people arguing are missing a solid point, it’s not unions in general that are screwing everything up, it’s the UAW that has huge problems. They can get away with whatever they want and never take a loss. They are like the mafia of the domestic economy.
