Plan to fix the Auto Industry

March 30th, 2009

image Step one: Get rid of the UAW. Unions have had their day and now they have destroyed the auto industry. They cannot continue to pay some guy $45.00 or more per hour to sit there and install steering wheels all day. Don’t forget his Union mandated smoke break every 15 minutes.
