Why on earth would a government HAVE to give money to a business so that it could REMAIN viable? Reeks of socialism to me.
So you are saying that all union workers should be fired and only non-union workers hired?

And you are suggesting $15.00 per hour as a good starting wage?

How did you arrive at the particular wage? Who will show these new workers how to build cars? The average wage at Toyota USA is $30.00 per hour; do you even know what you are talking about?

You somehow think that unions are the root of all evil but do not mention the 'golden parachute' of one executive at 100 million dollars would pay the yearly wages of 2,000 union employees at 50 thousand dollars per year. One guy walking out the door vs 2,000 skilled workers for one year - and it is unions that are destroying the world -- gimme a break!
