Why should they cave to demands from management? How about producing decent
products that people want to buy?

That is just looney talk. Do you want Ford to go the route of Government
Motors?

They are decent products. But if you are paying some low skilled laborer
excess money, then the decent product is priced out of the market.

They are decent products. But if you are paying some low skilled laborer
excess money, then the decent product is priced out of the market.

Then, when the contract expires the company should seek to renegotiate. It
takes two parties to make a contract. If there's good management in place,
then the union members will feel better about consessions.

Ford is producing America's best vehicles. Their corporate leadership
has put them into a strong position, not having to take any bailout
money.

Funny how the union thugs always blame a struggling company on the
management, but in this case, the union wants to take credit for
management's success. Freakin' union leeches.

Union management is the most corrupt entity in big business... right
behind Chicago politics.

Wonderful!

I thought Ford wasn't struggling? Does the management team build the cars or
is that done by the workers?

Union management is the most corrupt entity in big business... right
behind Chicago politics.

It has been in the past. Don't know if union management is now. Let's assume
it is. Does that excuse management greed?
