The Big Three… The Problem is the Unions.

Me at Q&O [1]  just now…

I have always seen the union as the core of the issues with domestic automakers. I submit that the quickets and most efficient way to get GM back in the black and on a growth pattern is to eliminate by government fiat, unions. Yes, I’m serious.

Proof? Look; The American auto-industry has been doing pretty well outside of the big three, mostly because they’re not dealing with the Unions overlarge demands on wages and bennies. I’ve been saying for bloody years, now that Unions are killing America. It suprises me not at all that things are at this pass.

Is there anyone on the planet who does not understand that the Democats… who are all over this bailout (ostensibly) for auomakers, are also, generally speaking the ones who don’t gave a rat’s bump about American industry, and they are people who have been runing against corporate America? Why would they want to bail corporate America out?

In this case, the answer is simple and direct; They’re not about bailing out the big three, they’re about bailing out the UAW, from whom they invariably get massive support… both in votes and in dollars. One could argue there’s a direct conflict of interest there, but I suspect you won’t hear anyone but me making the suggestion.

All this aside from the control the government… meaning Democrats… get to claim as shareholders.
