Hooray for the workers.

The union should go pound sand.

The company’s position in this, is simply weird.

In partial defense of VW, they’re used to working hand in hand with German unions, which are a very different kettle of fish from the UAW.

As VW will presumably eventually discover.

“Amazingly, the UAW and the automaker both refuse to take the workers’ “no” for an answer. The two sides are acting in unison to overturn the democratically expressed will of the workers.”

Amazingly, the UAW and the automaker’s German Union, both refuse to take the workers’ “no” for an answer. The two sides are acting in unison to overturn the democratically expressed will of the workers...Fixed it.

VW’s union in Germany threatened to strike if American VW plants weren’t also forced to accept a corrupt union.

Had VW the company wanted a union they would have built the plant in Detoilet, or moved back to the closed plant in PA.

They HAD a UAW controlled plant in PA in the 80’s, strike after strike forced them to close it.

The author need a history lesson on VW and the UAW before his next article.

I predicted it before, and I will predict it again... the NLRB will declare the plant to be unionized.

Obama didn't pack the NLRB with Communists for no reason.

I’ll say it again. Had the members of the Tennessee legislature not threatened VW if the Union was voted in then the UAW would still have been voted down, probably by a larger margin than it was, and the union and the Dems would not have a leg to stand on. But by threatening tax incentive if the UAW was allowed to organize in VW then the legislature left the issue wide open for charges of intimidation and abuse and left the door open for appeal. They have nobody to blame but themselves.
