I am not against unions, I am against greed and waste, and find it amazing that seeing how the economy is and how it was and how it will be, that these auto makers did NOT produce what the consumer obviously needed or would need.
Just how much in bonus' did those CEOs of these companies rake in? I remember reading thousands laid off while CEOs collected MILLIONS in bonus'!!!!!
Greed.
It has taken over almost everything. In fact, I cannot think of one area it hasnt. Starting with the office of President.
