Since those dealership employees arent UAW workers, the union doesnt care how many people they fire. How long do you think GM will survive with union ownership? The people that bankrupted the company now have to run it. It will be fun to watch the UAW negotiate with itself.
".....to watch them loot the company more quickly", you mean.
I know that bashing the union is very popular on these auto discussions, but I fail to grasp the logic. GM was and is owned by the stockholders who select the board of directors who select the CEO who selects a management team. These are the people who run the company and if it goes into bankruptcy, they will be the people responsible.
I am not a real fan of unions but I have to acknowledge that the union leadership has done a better job of building wealth for their membership than the board of directors and company management has done in building wealth for the stockholders.
Blaming the union for bad management decisions or for obtaining contracts favorable to union membership is just like blaming a customer for negotiating a lower price when they purchase a car. Possibly in this upside down world, we customers as well as the workers should all forgo the opportunity to make the best deal possible for ourselves so that we can protect those investors who fail to properly oversee the board of directors who fail to properly oversee the management who fail to make the wise and prudent decisions (including labor negotiations) necessary for the company to prosper.
