As I stated eralier in this thread, it is indeed the UAW which crippled the auto industry in this country. The article posted previous to this posting actually states the pay is not $70 per hr, but rather works out to that when figuring in health insurance, sick time, personal time, vaca time, etc., etc., etc.,
Things are changing quickly, however. Union workers realizing very quickly what the alternative is.
When this mess sorts intself out (in 2 or 3 years) my guess would be unions will be a thing off the past. Back to the days of "an honest day's pay, for an honest day's work". Never mind 12 weeks vaca, 15 sick days, 11 Holidays, 10 floaters, 22 sick days......
