Tony, I'm thinking the union wasn't doing it's job if you couldn't go to the bathroom. The most recent people I know that work at a car plant are in South Carolina at the BMW plant. They don't have a union. And EVERYBODY wants to get on there because they make great money, have tremendous vacation packages and health benefits that make the rest of the poor rednecks in that area living in trailers very envious.
I guess it's all a matter of perspective. I think the auto workers have a pretty good gig as far as jobs go. But they may not have a job at all if their unions can't make concessions. If hard times are indeed coming...then those workers are either going to have to make a LOT less money...or they will make no money at all. Something is better than nothing.
