Its an election year and no one is going to kiss off Michigan's electoral votes. Besides, blue collar workers jobs are worth saving, since they do productive work that benefits America.

Michigan will go DEM, as always; and Detroit will continue to churn out crap cars.

I’m all in favor of blue collar jobs from companies that don’t screw their consumers. The Japanese-run auto companies operating in America without unions provide those jobs, and turn a profit the old fashioned way - by earning the loyalty of their customers!

I agree. this doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the bailout of the banksters, unlike whom Detroit is actually involved in the creation of real wealth.

By the time they are done they will be sending a billion dollar check to every resident of the USA.

“Besides, blue collar workers jobs are worth saving, since they do productive work that benefits America.”

You’ve obviously never experienced the UAW work ethic. I was shocked at what I saw going on at one of the plants that I was sent to to provide training. The union made me provide the training on a weekend so they could get OT. Most slept, others read the paper, a few pretended to be interested. One guy bragged to me that he’s never used his tool allowance to actually buy tools. I asked him how he gets his work done. He said he don’t do any work.

Ruined my weekend and opened my eyes.
