“For lurkers who might not know, VW also owns Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati, as well as a couple other brands that arent sold in the US.
So what, all brands I would never buy. Screw VW.

“Osterloh said that, if co-determination isn’t guaranteed, it would be more difficult to vote in favor of building another auto plant in the South.”
Fine. If you don’t want another one in Tennessee, build it in Detroit. You’ll get your “co-determination” alright.

This article, quoting other news sources, does not state what the title says.

Fascism did not lose WWII, it just went underground and took over through the professionals in lying and corruption.

Yea, It’s expanding too and I don’t know if people realize or consider this — but it generates an awful amount of ancillary business too.

I think we should consider that what’s being said is really is for the benefit of Obama and the Liberals. The question is, is it setting the stage for some type of forced unionization?

Actually this makes sense.
The German VW union doesn’t want non union competition from the U.S.
And I assume “Volkswagen AG General and Group Works Council chairman” is another name for VW’s union head honcho in Germany.

John Roberts was placed on the scotus because he would facilitate the fascist agenda. It may take blackmail to get him to put on the dog collar, but he has done it.

The problem is that big automakers don’t really want to deal with every individual employee. The company would probably be pacified if the employees formed their own independent union.

I can find no reason for his Obamacare decision other than he is a ringer.

I’m afraid most Americans can not identify fascim when it is biting their paychecks, much less when the media conspicuously mischaracterizes it. America is a fascist country now. Obamacare is a screaming proof of it! And Roberts endorsed it, the fascism.
