Common knowledge their cars are just as reliable, and mostly BETTER, than companies with non union workers.

The quality is not the problem. We get what we pay for. The problem is GM is not getting what we pay them. At least not enough to turn a good profit. The blame still lies on both the union and the company IMHO.
i dont mean the product, i mean the union members themselves. I'm sure there are good hard working union workers, but most just float along because they can! "no need to work TOO hard, I'm getting paid anyway" mentality

my post was directed at UNIONS & the work ethic they instill, not at anywhere or anybody else...

i too think unions are a hold-overs from the industrial revolution, coal mines, auto manafacturers, etc, before the gov had OSHA & other regulatory agencies in place...

still have a place today? maybe, my opinion is no. not in most company's.

now in China, Tawain, most of SE Asia, most definitely...
