Chrysler's Bankruptcy: Union-Management Relationships Unlikely to Change in Detroit

This is the foundation of your argument..?
" The union had no real reason to see the car companies succeed. They just wanted their wages maintained, their pension fully funded and their healthcare.”
To this i say my friend you are a moron. Why would i want the company i worked for for 33 yrs to fail ? Union wages and compnsation make up 10 % of their total cost. When they were making billions of dollars for years, it was not my decision on how to blow the money or what prouducts to come out with. All we did was put together what they give us together. Have your ever worked a line? Try it and then tell me what your worth to them. And this is the best you can come up with. No my friend and i use that loosely, you are the parasite here. Get a real job that you know even a tad about . Then again you are probably a non union worker eh..?

Thank you user 13799 for the response to this person. They have no clue really. How about the devalue of the Yen no one has talked about and let happen for years. Most people don't know that the two most expensive parts of the car are assembled in japan and sent over here to be put in on the line. Engine and trans make up the biggest cost of the car and the money stays there. They are taken care of in Japan while we have to fight for everything we've gotten over the many years. The tax break should go to the purchase of an AMERICAN company car. Where the money stays. I retired from FORD ( Hourly) after 32 years. And according to the auto pundits FORD is equal to or better in quality than Toyota or Honda now. So these people that say this crap haven't a arguement or that just plain bandwagon jealousness of people that work their asses off everyday and get a decent wage for it. We have a Baffoon thats been running the country for eight years now along with the rep majority for six of those years and have managed to ruin the middle class and bring the great country to the verge of depression in eight short years. When i seen John McCain drive away the day after the election in his brand new Toyota SUV Limited my blood was boiling. And he wanted to be President.
