The UAW has been trying for years to get into these Japanese plants here in North America, and they are rarely successful.

The best cases involve former Big Three auto plants that were shut down, then re-opened some years later by a Japanese manufacturer. The UAW has a very hard time organizing the workers in those plants.

"I don't work for the UAW -- I work for Nissan," is a common sentiment among those (former UAW) workers.

I'd bet you the farm that one of the reasons they located in Mississippi is because the UAW has as much clout there as the Israeli Ambassador has at the Arab Caucus of the UN.
