STRIKE! Clearly if they just kept making the already failing product at a rate that will satisfy you, it will just make the company "healthy" and better able to pay you... (Can anybody say, "Nobody is going to have a job because the company is going to Move to Mexico!"?

United Auto Workers Rev Up for Strike Against GM
Monday, September 24, 2007

AP Story

DETROIT — After 20 straight days of negotiations, the United Auto Workers union said it would strike General Motors Corp. Monday morning if a new contract agreement isn't reached, citing the automaker's failure to address job security and other concerns.

"We're shocked and disappointed that General Motors has failed to recognize and appreciate what our membership has contributed during the past four years," UAW President Ron Gettelfinger said in a statement early Monday.

Gettelfinger didn't offer specifics, but the UAW had been expected to ask GM for guarantees of future production at U.S. plants as part of the negotiations.

And of course poor management has nothing to do with the companys poor performance. It is all the unions fault.
 
The union has already previously made concessions, as I understand it.

If GM isn't cutting the salaries, benefits, and perks of its CEO and management, I question whether is moral and ethical to continue to ask labor to make concessions.
 
Morals and ethics are counter to profit....
At least in the execs pockets.

Who is that that always popped up about now saying the shareholders would take care of the problem ?
