Tuesday: GM dumps retiree health care « The Confluence: "...Or, GM could stop thinking in the present like it has been doing since the first oil crisis and turn out cars and trucks that are actually energy efficient and well designed. It could stop hiring CEO’s who live in the moment and oppose universal healthcare until the enormous cost of it threatens to bring down their industry. They could stop blaming labor for all of their problems.
Did you ever notice that whenever there is a crisis in an industry, it’s always labor’s fault for demanding too much? They’re damned it they work with no protection and damned if they work with it. If they get laid off these days, they get blamed for the cost of unemployment. Industry would work so much better if the damn workers would just show up, do their jobs for free and go away when they’re not needed any longer.
But NOooooOOOoo. Now we learn that the unions enjoy privileges that most workers do not. We can all point our fingers at them and say, “They are getting more than we are. That’s not fair!” instead of saying, “Which bozos were in charge in the past 30 years who allowed this to happen?...”"
