I hope everyone who is bashing unions is a corporate CEO, otherwise I can't understand...
I laugh at people who blame unions for the outsourcing of American companies, if they weren't there the wages would be miserable and working conditions like those of South-Easian sweatshops...
na, we're normal people who look at gm, chrysler and who see what unions have done to states like michigan! your post however displays the ignorance which is typical of those of your ilk
He fully intended to take on the unions and if you didn't see that coming then shame on you. Why were the unions warning people in advance of the election that he would do this if nobody knew his stances on it??
what people are saying is that it was not in his campaign to take on unions, all politicians have an hidden agenda. also if you read he said the collective bargaining will be left intact c'mon son!
its like people saying if obama get elected we're gonna have to become muslims and will be under sharia law ROTFL
GWB 2 knew he was gonna invade iraq others new it too, so whats your point? LINK FOR THAT QUOTE AS WELL

nah, it's like obama saying he was going to close gitmo. or the one where he said he would withdraw from iraq. he forgot to mention that he was going to place non-combat troops there oh and more blackwater contractors aka mercenaries. another funny one was when he said he was going to reign in lobbyists. he forgot to include that he was going to let them write the healthcare law. another good one was that 'bills posted online' story.

There is no chance that GM's demise could be blamed on its management. Right? Ford did just fine. Virtually all successful auto companies do just fine with unions in their homeland and elsewhere. And yet, union is the reason GM went down?
How about poor planning and refusal to be more progressive?

firstly Ford did not do just fine. it barely made it through and a can guarantee you that had it not been for programs like cash for clunkers and other stimulus it might not have made it through.
similarly there is no chance that gm demise could be blamed on excessive union benefits? let's consider that gm spends more on viagra and other medications than it does on steel.
The Collective Extortionists are deliberately lying to camouflage the fact that public employment is not a right but a privilege. And collective bargaining is a privilege, too. The truth is that public employee unions are OVER PRIVILEGED and are seeking superiority over the underprivileged tax payers.
