Really shows how ingrained anti-union sentiment remains in the South. The employer, VW, didn't fight the UAW, and the workers weren't sold on the benefits of collective bargaining.

If your company is well managed you won't have unions

Power switches sides like a pendulum. Once upon a time management had too much power, so unions were formed. Now unions may have too much power. I'm not a fan of unions, but they wouldn't exist if there hadn't been past abuses.

Seems to me the only way to guarantee that abuses won't occur in the future is to have Gov't regulation or unions. We may not need both, but I think we need one or the other.

No, this system still places company profits ahead of customer health. But its slightly better than what we have. :coffee:

Yeah. Another 5,000,000 without health insurance. A president who lies through his teeth. Awesome.
