Tag, I hear you, but realistically, if (big, big IF) GM (and Ford, and Chrysler) could get rid of the "union", they would still need to fill the jobs. Everyone that is working on the line (I mean the whole line, not necessarily just assembly) could all stop working for the Union on Monday, and still have their job on Tuesday. They just wouldn't be union members at that point.
The biggest problem that I have had with every union....they promote mediocrity. There is absolutely no point in being a "standout" worker. It gains you nothing more than the guy doing just enough to not get fired. He gets the same pay/benefits/etc as you do whether he dogs it or not. That's %#@ked up.
Again, the unions have long out lived their usefulness. It's time for all unions to go and company costs, therefore product costs, to come down.
Don't people get tired of paying union dues as well? I mean seriously, I think I would get pretty sick of that.
