Volkswagen Plans North America Onslaught

YOU'RE RIGHT... THE ONE THING WE DO NOT NEED IS LIVABLE WAGES, HEALTH CARE BENEFITS, SAFETY WORK RULES.
WHAT WE NEED IS MORE FOREIGN TRANSPLANTS UNDERCUTTING THE AMERICAN UNION WORKERS, BRING DOWN OUR WAGES, CUT OUT BENEFITS. THAT IS GOING TO JUMP START OUR ECONOMY, INCREASE PEOPLE'S BUYING POWER, GIVE US A STRONG TAX BASE AND OF COURSE PUT US AT PAR WITH THE REST OF THE THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES...SUCCESS ON A MASSIVE SCALE...

AND WE WONDER HOW WE GOT IN THIS MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!

U.S. Automakers’ Race to the Bottom

MCBAIN... I APOLOGIZE ...I WAS REFERRING TO JM5383'S POST!

U.S. Automakers’ Race to the Bottom

" Note" It is the Germen government that's piking-up the tab..not the auto companies...in this country the Toyota republicans call it socialism..in Germany they call it common-sense...the Germen government likes to keep workers on the job in USA our government wants us on the unemployment line!

As for Hyundai buyback guaranty it only good if you loose your income...the magic word is INCOME because you see, after you loose your job you still collect unemployment benefits for up to a year!
IT'S BOGUS ADVERTISING, JUST LIKE THEIR BOGUS GAS MILEAGES!

Your transplants hire 25% of their workers at $12/hr and no benefits they are temps (2year contract workers)...That's a fact... not analysis! their permanent workers are at lower wages...any where from $17/hr to $26/hr with no pension benefits...whether they retire @50 years old or 70...and they have limited health care as long as they are working...that's a fact not analysis!
Talk to me when your BMW retire with no pension and have to pay 20% of their medical bills and medicines!

#s'man...I'm using wal mart's wages as an example...since every one out there pays in the $9/hr range...lowe's, home depot, kmart and the non union industrial small shops...and yes i shop wal mart and buy MADE IN USA when available...but unfortunately corporate America has made MADE IN USA an all most impossible task!

Georgen: let me tell you what the Detroit problem is...back in the 80s a president by the name of Ronald Reagan had an agenda...to bust unions...he invited the Asian auto makers to build their product in USA...Very good idea you say right?...wrong!
there is a market in this country for so many vehicles whether it is 10 or 15 million...for every non union Asian transplant...( be it Toyota, Honda or KIA)... with no pension benefits and little health care benefits...for every one of them... one of our shuts down. thus cutting in Detroit market share and profits...As market shares come down profit get thiner...as they open factories with billions of $ in tax breaks from the Toyota republicans... our own shut down! then came the $4 a gallon gas and the end of Detroit profitable SUVs...remember all those shut downs? a lot of those workers retired early thus creating a bigger burden for Detroit! don't forget also that the Asians don't have the retiree cost that Detroit has, their workers don't have a pension plan...when they retire you and I will have to take care of them! the unions are not killing Detroit the hypocrites in Washington are!

The union busting politicos in Washington are destroying this country...not the union workers...the only thing the union is guilty of is obtaining good wages and benefits for its workers.

I'm sick and tired of you anti union, anti American and anti workers...It's not the well payed working stiffs of this country that's destroying it or Detroit auto industry...The contrary...it's the wal mart wages that corporate America has created... Low wages DO NOT have the purchase power that's needed to keep the economy strong...You the anti union hypocrites are making a third world country out of America...SHAME ON YOU!

The American people need jobs.... good paying jobs! As long as our government and wall street keep on lowering wages and shipping jobs over seas we'll never get out of this mess!
You can not take my job away and then expect me to buy!

We need the politicos in Washington to have COGLIONES big enough to say to corporate America...you sell here...you build it here!
