It looks like they're in the blue state areas.

Delphi announced plans Friday to throw out its union contractsPerhaps, there's a silver lining here.

Hillary wants a "Marshall Plan" for GM and Ford.

One can only hope. Wonder what it will ultimately cost Delphi?

What a dumbass map above. They put Lockport and Rochester where they aren't. Hardly even close, especially for Lockport.

Unions (greed) will be the end of industries where they exist.

This could be trouble for a lot more than GM. I know that Navistar International uses a lot of Delphi parts and that they are back ordered (regulation change).

We all knew this was coming.
A lot of people soaked money out of the system through the union, big time, and for doing little or nothing (the reports abound), but it will be the people who worked their butts off that will get hurt.
Why is this such a familiar scenario?

Delphi is moving all the jobs to Mexico. Perhaps they'll take some illegals with them.

God I hope so. Close it down. Blame the RATS.

About time. If a company can't make a quality product that people want, it deserves to die. Worse, if they saddle themselves with unsustainable social welfare "retirement" benefits, it deserves to die. Worse still, if they continue to pay idle workers because of years of kowtowing to unions, they deserve to die. Three strikes against GM--Ford is next.
I do hate to see an American icon like GM go down, but something drastic has to happen, and I hope taxpayer money isn't spent trying to prop them up. It would just cost billions and only delay the inevitable.
I bought my last GM product in 2004. What a piece of crap. Never again.
To: MinorityRepublican
If I remember correctly, Delphi has the patents on "Quadrasteer" which is the four-wheel steering that was available on GMC trucks until 2005. Nifty product that would give a long bed crew-cab pickup the same turning radius as a Toyota Camry.

There will not be a strike, at least not a long one.
This is all posturing. The analysts and insiders I talk to all see Delphi avoiding a crippling strike.
