Sorry guys, this is really not a union issue. It is happening everywhere in the world in just about every industry. The taxpayer is being used as a cash cow to fund these large companies through what is basically extortion.

The Jeep plant in Toledo was given $50 million to stay there through the city and state. GM's automatic transmission plant was given millions upon millions to move to Toledo. They built a state-of-the-art facility and although the state thought they were going to make all the money back in taxes, it hasn't happened. They automated almost everything to the point there are few actual jobs left.

The race is on to find the country with the lowest average cost. China was winning, but running a business there is so corrupt, an actual stand-up company cannot do anything.
