Please tell me this is not your response. "The people that bombed Pearl harbor". The people that bombed Pearl Harbor I am sure are not building Hondas in Ohio. The Wack Jobs are out today folks!

I'm sitting here eating lunch (Chinese food, so I guess I am all for communism too), and I almost spit out my sweet and sour chicken because I was laughing so hard.

It'll be interesting to see how the rational public views all of the money lost and constant pandering...
Do you seriously believe the whole thing is some kind of concocted conspiracy gone awry?

Joking, no. Exaggerating, yes.

Let me ask you this. Do you support the right of Americans to seek as much income as they can?

Let me guess. This baiting question all leads to UAW workers trying to take as much money as they can. Correct?

You are an Obama worshipping drone who has no thoughts of their own. Keep voting for the same politicians over and over. I see it has done well to enlighten you.
Behind on the times? The whole American auto industry? Your perception, in my opinion, is lagging by an estimated 5-7 years. Time to catch up with current reality.

I'll be waiting....

Of course.

How many CEOs can you name who work without a contract? Nearly everything in business is done under contract. Heck, I can't even get Reno H-D to change my back tire without signing a contract. Why shouldn't workers have the same right?

Simple, you build s**t for decades, throw in a coke bottle or some screws in the doors so they rattle, financially rape and pillage the companies because that's the good ole union way, get all 6 year oldish and throw a tantrum when the insane demands aren't met, and then act like your employer owes you a favor? Please. The unions have outlived their usefulness.

As for your CEO shtick, well look how much damaged they caused? Contract or not, if you suck at your job, you deserve less pay or be terminated - not given a damn raise because you have seniority or go on strike because you finally have to pay a little into your pension.

Now I must ask you. You're joking, right?

Okay. Are you claiming that being a member of a union equates to "sucking at your job?"

I'll ask again. You're joking, right?

Have you ever set foot into a major union shop, or for that matter, ever worked in one?

I'm just wondering about the source of your perception, which, by my opinion, is lagging by an estimated 10-12 years.

Besides, as i can currently remember, the UAW gave concessions, for the last 10 years and even more so this time. Just those "greedy" holders of debt of Chrysler throwing a "tantrum".

Trust me on this, the UAW has not outlived their usefulness. Remeber the peanut farms and the salomenella outbreak? That would of never happened in an union shop!
