Ford still has union thugs working for them, and union thugs who aren’t working form them, still receiving paychecks, do they no? If so, the time will come when they need a bailout, so they better be nice.
Yes, which is part (and only part) of what was so monstrous about the GM bailout giving majority ownership to the UAW. Ford is now competing against its own workers.
And Ford is the next target in the UAW's contract negotiations. No doubt the union wants the same deal as Government Motors gave them when they settled a few weeks ago. After all, GM is nothing more than a government employer not unlike schools, cities and states that have employee unions.
