This will work great unless we get a Dimwit president who uses the NLRB to railroad the UAW into the company...it will be downhill from there.

uses the NLRB to railroad the UAW into the company

It sounds like he's got a plan for that:

Each supplier's factory will sit around a cross—the assembly line—which resembles a street intersection. And each of those suppliers' factories may in turn be ringed by parts vendors that supply components that arrive minutes before being used in, say, a transmission.

It could be like the supermarket where distributors not only bring in their potato chips, but they stock the shelves too. Hard to unionize 13 different vendors.
However, if one does get unionized it could shut the plant down. Maybe he has backup vendors for that.

I think its an interesting idea, and gives the moribund car industry a kick in the pants.
