The Big Three car mess
You are exactly right about the Democrat congressman and the money they receive from the UAW. All of these people need to learn how to work and make the same money as other peolpe in other industries.
I know for a fact that they could fill those jobs in one week at 15.00 to 20.00 and hour. They have all made to much money and agreed to way to much compensation for way to long. File bankruptcy and then reorganize like many other companies have. They say this is not a option but I do not know why.
The unions have way out lasted their need to exist. They are not needed anymore. Most of the people that work at these plants work a lot slower than the avarage American worker for a lot more money. It takes way to many of them do the jobs that are required but that is the union way. You better not work very hard and make the rest of us look bad. The job banks and other stupid stuff they have to pay for is crazy. No one could stay in business with the pay scale and benefits that these guys have.
America better wake up and get of its ass and go to work because we are getting pretty lazy as a whole. I was taught that if you wanted something you worked harder and smarter than the other guy and you would be succesful.
If there is a demand for more cars someone will come along and do it better. They will buy the plants and get new workers and get the job done if there is money to be made. Last time I checked this was a capilist country and the Big Three have had their heads up their asses for 20 years and gotten raped by the UAW. Now they want us to pay for all of the mistakes and keep paying all of them these over priced wages. They need more like 150 billion to come out of this deal and we are just wasting tax payers money with bull **** loan that will never be repaid because they will go out of business anyway.
Someone is going to have to go in and tell the Big Three and UAW that this is the way it is if you want any money. You will structure yourself after other modern successful companies with similiar pay scales. Move them all to other states with no unions and they will maybe make it. I want them to succeed but in the right way. I have never purchased a foriegn car and came close this last time but I am a die hard American and try to buy American. The American car companies can not compete against the foriegn car companies the way they are now that is for sure. You would have thought these idiots would have seen this coming.
