GM Workers on Strike

GM workers are going to be screwing themselves in the long run. GM is still in trouble, and only a matter of time before GM moves to Mexico or Canada and NO ONE will have a job

Matt, thanks for saying that! My thoughts exactly!!

US automaker sales are down across the board and these folks
are striking. Perhaps they should consider the - out of line
wages they get for the level of work they perform. I know
this is going to pi$$ some members off here, but it needs to
be said. We don't live in the same world anymore and no one
( including US car buyers evidently ) wants to pay a premium for
those wages. I'd rather be employed at a somewhat realistic
wage than unemployed with a former high wage. World wide
competition is very tight right now and all automakers have
their sights clearly set on the USA. Wonder why that is?
We're so busy fighting amongst ourselves and the ailing US
automaker situation that we don't see them coming. Look at
some of these Asian automakers. 100,000 mile warranty! If
you daughter wants her first car and I can find a descent
one with a 100,000 mile warranty, guess which way I'm going.

Where the hell is Lee Iacocca when we need him.....

On a similar note, I just heard that Chrysler is offering a
"LIFE TIME WARRANTY" on new vehicles!
Now, that will get them back on the radar. Perhaps we just
found Lee Iacocca afterall.......
