Screw’em all.... Why in the Hell should I pay one red cent to bail out the Big Three or the leeches in the UAW?

Hands up here, I agree 100%.
The UAW gave the Obama champagne 4 hundred million dollars to get him elected. That was 4 hundred million too much. The UAW, in my opinion are not good stewards with the union money. I don't cuss—that may change if I hear the UAW beg for money.
The UAW is probably bearing down so hard on Pelosi and Reid that they are beginning to fear them.
Members of my family have been members of the UAW since 1954. You could put all my respect for the UAW in a small pinhead with a hole in the bottom.

The Big Three should have closed shop years ago. Call your Congressman, tell them if one red cent is given to the Big Three or the UAW your vote is gone and you will work door to door against anyone that supports the UAW or Big Three.
You could give them 25 billion a month, they will still need more. Good management is the only thing that can help them, after 50 to 60 years of bad management, it is probably too late.

My knee jerk reaction is to agree with you. But I keep thinking about the ripple effect — all the ancillary businesses and suppliers that depend on them for a living, etc. This is going to hurt a lot of people who have nothing to do with the Big 3 unions and that’s a shame. It will be very painful for a lot of people who didn’t make the big bucks the union employees made.
