"Thousands of workers could be laid off but would still get most of their pay because their United Auto Workers union contract requires the company to make up much of the difference between state unemployment benefits and their wages."
That's the benefit of a union, folks. That's real.
Too bad you dont have to get out of bed to collect an unemployment check (except to get it out of the mail box
It would be nice to see this union scum on an unemployment line with their UAW sandwich signs and get the shit beat out of them by regular people like they do to "scab "labor
I know people have been talking about there being a coming Depression. If/When things get really bad, I wonder how bad they'll be. Do you think things will be worse than what happened back in the 1930s with the Great Depression?
AMERICANS you did a fine job telling how important it is to buy American products from food to autos from USA companys who make and have higher standards fairer wages for USA workers and must comply with laws of our nation and be held responsible when they dont. Unlike many other nations selling goods in our country. Its time for all of our states to support one another. And not be traitors to some foriegn country lining their pockets and to cause people in the USA to live worst off with less
As a tier 2 worker, I would like to say FUCK THE UAW. Grow a pair of balls and MAYBE you will get some money from me!!!!

Buyers voted with their money.
Verdict of the economic ballot: GM, drop dead.
This is REAL democracy.
To the workers: Move and get another job.

UAW would rather let the place go down in flames rather then take a pay cut. Unions have no place in the US today!
