General Motors Hurtles Toward Bankruptcy
And then theres the UAW. They are in fact the beginning and the end of the governments interest in General Motors. They will come out of this as the big winners. Never mind that the average automaker earns half again as much in wages and benefits as the average American. UAW boss Ron Gettelfinger, with CEO Obama at his side, will announce deep, painful concessions to be suffered by the union membership.
But dont believe a word of it. The union will come out of this nearly untouched, with their exorbitant compensation packages basically intact, and minor changes in work and seniority rules. And you the taxpayers will be paying for every penny of this, because they wont be earning all that pay in the market. GM in bankruptcy will force every one of its stakeholders to take major pain except the UAW membership.
