QUOTE I know lots that work for `Generous Motors` as we call it.
If what you`re saying is true, and I have heard that before, it`s not the union`s fault that the GM executives are poor negotiators. As a union, their mandate is to bring the most compensation and the best working conditions to their members. If they`ve been the beneficiaries of inflated salaries, who`s fault is that? Again, the GM executives! They agreed to the terms, they ratified the contract. In no way is it the fault of the workers for being paid what they are - would you decline a salary increase if offered one? Would you say, gee, thanks boss, but I think I`ll pass, because I`m not very valuable to this company after all. Pretty easy to see who`s at fault here, no?
By the way, why would you, of all people, possibly be against this bailout? Maybe the stimulant could provide you a tenant for your condo! That writeup`s sure done you no good (as predicted)!
