I like this idea. If there were better jobs in Mexico, the people would not be invading America looking for work.

I don't know what you're so happy about. You can multiply X2 the good non-union professional jobs lost to Mexico for each union job lost. Not to mention all the small and mid level businesses that will never open that would have helped support the plant.

Kind of a bad blow just so you can exalt over a few union jobs lost.

Yes, the complaint should be that the public had to bail the company out and then the company turns around and expands elsewhere so that those who bailed them out are unable to benefit. Not that the unions lost out here but that the citizens that bailed them out lost.

We all lost, not just the unions.

How much did the Mexican government contribute to the bailout of GM? I'm having trouble finding the exact #, can someone google that for me?

They are coming across the border daily with their mouths open, hands out, and DNC voter application in their back pocket.
