OK, and here's Michigan! The big three paying guys $28.00 an hour and more to a guy putting a screw in a fender. This was fine until we opened the borders to allow inports. Now there is no way you can pay that wage and compete with japan cars. So lets give them a bailout - waste of tax payers money! I worked a long time in a union and watched it save the jobs of a lot of drunks and dope users - the lames that didn't work hard, and in a union shop, you only have to work as hard as the biggest lame in there, cause there is no incentive, you all get payed the same. In a non-union shop, you can negociate your pay raises and the hard workers will advance and the lames will not. Unions are kinda like socialism. I like the guys who strike for about 6 months, loose all that money, and come back to work with the same or worse contract and have years to make that pay back that they lost. Power to the people! Yes we needed unions 100 years ago but they turned in to organized extorsion which is killing this county's ability to compete.
Business is to make money, not provide jobs - that's why they now move to Mexico - the unions and high wages drive them outta here. Won't sell me on unions!
