Everybody would agree with me here if I said "Go America".


But, I wonder how many would agree if I said "Go Unions"...

 

Good for Ford.

As far as Unions well Im not going to get on that one. I feel they are overpaid in the Auto Industry. See how no Qualifications. They get paid more then some of the helpful guys at Honda.

 

I think FoMoCo engineers aren't all in the union, and the ones who are voted to join up in 2004 or something....

 

yeah but its proven that unions get more work done, even tho you hear all the jokes like "must be a union worker" its proven they do... ill see if i can find the study link

 

I am a union member at a dealership. It annoys me that the union member at the assembly plant gets paid anywhere from 5-10 dollars mpre an hour than me - and all he has to do is SCREW IN BOLTS.

Nothing invested in tools, training, ANYTHING. Plus all the benefits you get with the union job at the assembly plant.

No-mind, no-skilled job, and you get 30+ an hour to do it? I think that's pretty weak.
