Did you see the UAW worker on national news about a month back, when ask by a reporter "so, on average about $1200 dollars of every car goes to pay for UAW worker health care for life. When ask, why don't you think the UAW should start paying for more of their benefits? The worker replied, because my father was a UAW worker and his was paid for, so should mine." And he wonders why his job will be gone, or moved to Mexico. Still, I think a lot of out of people in the Northeast would love to make $30 hour, and not be part of a union!!!
