It wont be long before the UAW will merge with some other Union like the Machinists.

VW Workers Escape from Detroit
By The Editors

“The UAW spent millions of dollars trying to influence the Chattanooga vote. It has given away some $45 million of its members’ money in political donations, largely to Democrats, since 1990, and it has spent some $31 million on lobbyists since 1998. It spent $15.5 million on campaign donations in the 2012 cycle alone. For that kind of money, it could have become a major shareholder in one of the companies it seeks to influence — probably a better investment of its members’ dues.

The UAW is a moribund organization, having lost three-quarters of its members in recent decades, but the power and profit its bosses enjoy is a strong incentive to fight for every last penny, a project in which it can count upon the support of Barack Obama and other Democratic pooh-bahs who benefit from its financial support and manpower. The “transplant” automakers, which operate as a rule in right-to-work states, are an important economic success story, one of the major bastions of high-paying manufacturing jobs. The ladies and gentlemen in Tennessee are backing the right horse.”
