Tennessee Senator Bob Corker told the workers Volkwagen would receive no more state "incentives" if the workers unionized. It's pure extortion but what were they supposed to do?
They believed that?
Lol...incredible. GM in Spring Hill gets all the incentives they want, and they're a union plant.
I wonder if German unions have the same ties with rather unsavory types, such as the Mob, as many of our unions do here in the US.
I suspect German auto unions aren't quite as adversarial as the UAW.
You'd suspect wrong.
They can be EXTREMELY adversarial if they smell any subterfuge. And when German unions go militant, it ain't a game.
Generally though, they have labor peace. That's because Germans...employees and employers actually have a brain in their heads unlike their U.S. counterparts.

BTW...Hoffa died many moons ago dude. Let it go.
Yes, I know Hoffa died. Some say he's holding up the goal posts in Giants Stadium. Tony Pro or his heirs might know.
Ok please tell me about the mob in NJ or NY these days lol Sorry don't believe you. And yeah, the mob is pretty much non existence now. Unless, you know something I don't know.
Unions have their place. However their power can, very easily, become abusive to both management and labor.
Doesn't that describe any boss? Of course it does.
