Anyone taking bets on how long Cerberus allows the circus to go on before they pull the plug and sell off Chrysler’s assets?? Maybe Chrysler could be re-invented as a smaller leaner company with new factories in the right-to-work states without the killer albatross of the UAW?...

My understanding is that Cerberus is run by very intelligent people who do not put up with poor performance.

So this stike will probably last a short time (time enough to get the unsold inventory down) and will allow the union to save face by saying "We tried". But we will have to go back to work before too long or we will simply not have jobs to go back to.

The people who run Cerberus obviously have a plan - and a back-up plan.

Gotta get off the PC now and "work" around the house and on the vehicles. I believe it is best even if not "working" to still maintain a "work" schedule...

The truth is, a simply majority can force one.

The workers don't choose to strike or not - Union leaders do.

It was my understanding that union leadership could call a vote, but a rank and file vote had to be taken to approve of a strike. Then the management took over.

Is that not correct?

More than likely Chrysler will have its vehicles “contract built” by companies like Magna, who already builds Chryslers in Europe for that market
