ORIGINAL: maletpeslave I'm sorry, but that comes across as an absolutely insane comment. Of course management made mistakes. However, the UAW decided a long time ago that gold or silver level health care was not good enough for them...they wanted platinum level health care. As a result, they killed essentially the largest manufacturing company arguably the world has ever seen. It was quite impressive actually. No, actually it's not arguable, it's just completely wrong: Search and view the entire fourteenth annual IW 1000 list of the world's largest publicly held manufacturing firms. As is your statement about "platinum level health care". GM and other domestic manufacturers have the disadvantage of competing against foreign companies where health care is subsidized by the government. So, Ohio subsidizes the health care for Honda? Kentucky for Toyota? Hyundai, Mercedes, BMW, Mitsubishi, etc.? And don't give me the BS on tax incentives, since they give GM, Ford, and Fiat whatever they want up North here.
