The government ought to bring back the CETA program. Every one could get jobs under CETA, not just union thugs. In NY State, the only ones that are allowed to ever work for decent pay are union members. One day my brother applied for a job on highway construction in NYS and the guy said “after we hire every unemployed union member in the country, you might to be able to reapply.”

And a few words says it all — organized extortion. And the Big 3 want us to bail them out of the gross incompetence and union-induced complacency. If the government had any guts and was not running on total politics, they would tell the Big 3 to file for bankruptcy, reorganize and clean out the union extortion and control, and become competitive, profitable businesses. If Obama, et al, just bails them out, nothing will change — except the socialists will be happy that they were able to steal taxpayer dollars for their election vote payback.
