Problem won't be fixed until they do go under, start over, and get rid of the unions. I'm all for them, but people making that much money to work in a factory is wrong. I make a pretty good living, but nothing crazy, and there is people that work in these factories making 35 dollars an hour seperating bolts out of a big bucket into another. No way. That's poor business practice. I work for a retail chain that went through some restructuring this past year, and we are now doing well compared to the other companies in our type of business. Look at Circuit City and Best Buy, struggling bad, because they refuse to change with the times, and do what they have to do in order to preserve profits. Look at Office Depot, closing 112 stores, and cutting what they are opening next year in half. If they would have have prepared better for this, then maybe we all wouldn't be in the situation we are in now. But the problem is like midget racing, it's to far gone to fix because you can't just cut everybody's wages and they'll be happy. Micro said it best that Toyota is building the same types of cars for much cheaper because they aren't paying their workers as much, and you don't hear them in financial trouble. I'm all for rewarding employees, but what the big three have done is stupid in the grand scheme of things by allowing the union to push their way through.

PS. With all the money problems this country is in, does it bother anybody else that Navy, Army, and Air Force sponsor race teams? How about investing that money into the country, something that actually matters. And the UAW take some of those damned union fees that you're getting, get your name off the racecars you sponsor, and invest it back in your people so that way the auto makers can make a bit more profit to keep going. That'll never happen because that's just way to smart, and they want to have something cool to watch on Sunday afternoons I guess.
