They got a deal. No doubt. It’s all an act.
Exactly....we'll just never hear about it. When the unions go silent, we'll be able to read 'tween the lines.....the lapdog media won't, but some of us will.
Sad to say you maybe onto something, we maybe getting played harder than Obama is getting played by Putan, ( spelled incorrect on purpose ).
They maybe quasi-socialist apparatchiks, but after GM going under becauses of mainly healthcare, they know that if it happens again and Oboingo ain't in office, such a bankruptcy deal where they are at the head of the line and "their contracts" aren't voided i.e. they are kicked out like they should have been are slim and none. On top of it, they know the GM actuaries blew it and we are living longer and I have a funny suspicion VEBA or no VEBA they don't want the responsibility of Health-Care for workers anymore, they rather sluff it off on Uncle Sam and kiss his Democrat Derriere in exchange a focus on where their real power lies PENSIONS....
A penny for your thoughts...
Worst part? They got screwed with Nafta, now with Obamacare, and if their last stand is their Pensions if the Dem's do what they want and co-mingle them with SSI at somepoint they would loose that too. That would make them triple loosers. Will they ever learn???
