Default Re: NBC REPORT.....US AUTO INDUSTRY AT A CROSSROADS

The problem is Americans in general, its our fault, its called capitalism and Im all for it but we cant have it both ways. The American worker always wants more, more pay,less hours, more paid vacations and holidays, medical, pensions, perks, ect. The executives want more too, more stock options, bigger saleries, company cars and jets, ect, ect...Thats why a vette cost 6 grand in 1976 and 60 grand in 2006...its a domino effect that starts with the union guy who mines the iron that eventually becomes a part installed on the car by a UAW worker. This is our way of life and unless we do something drastic you will soon hear a giant vacuum sucking sound headed for China and there $2.50 an hour work force building 9K cars...
