I’ve heard of union workers getting “laid off” for weeks at a time, at 95% pay!

The cost of the program was 1.4 - 2 BILLION DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in 2006. I fantasize on a daily basis of what this country could be w/out liberalism, unions, welfare spending, etc. Oh the riches I would have.

I heard that teh big 3 lose $1000 on each car they sell because of legacy costs. Let them go bankrupt and reorganize!

Absolutely true.

I worked a summer temp. job in a FMC assembly plant in the 1960’s and when the summer change over to new models took place, sometimes 30 days, line workers were paid to sit at home.

Nice to know now that Obama wants you to pay for the UAW retirees bailout, even though you personally do not have a private pension to look forward to.
