actually the labour cost in the price of a truck is only 7 percent compared to 28% 20 years ago You would be surprised the amount of people there on the line with an education. IF the guy that was bitching about making minimum wage with his degree worked there hed be happy. sound like jealousy to me. The main fault here is government. Oh GM cant ship products to Asian and European countries but they can ship endless amount here and saturate us with their crap. .

Probably quite correct. I would have taken a huge pay cut to prevent being laid off, but the friggin UAW only cares about there own dues and bonuses

I think we both agree that governments (on all levels) have failed the people of this community.
As for the rest. GM is not in business to live up to agreements signed with the CAW. GM is in business for one reason only, to make as much money as possible.
As far as ALL of the workers in the GM truck plant not having a college education, I never said that! Some do, but the majority do not. I challenge anyone to provide stats that prove otherwise.

Typical union mentality. GM wants to close a plant, so we'll blockade and close another one. That'll show 'em.
Thuggery is the only tool available to unionists with no education who make $40/hour.

lets think broken agreement...the trade agreement...the ripple effect to feeder plants... the compromise the UNION HAS MADE!!! and alas...what makes you think that all employees only have a high school education.....some times jealousy will get the best of you....the complacency here would be the government...and yes it is biting the average working man in the ass..good day to you...

30+ an hour is simply ridiculous when pple in asia get paid 4 an hour for the same job-I have a university degree and I still get paid the minimum wage-Thats greedy GM-you lived beyond your means

You can not continue to pay people with high school educations $30+ an hour and still stay competitive in a globalization type environment. Governments should have focused on attracting new, diverse investment into this area but in the end, to a large degree, they just fell back on the comforting thought that GM would always be there to provide jobs and tax revenue.
Complacency will always come back to bite you in the ass.
