I deliver truck loads of goods to the gm and ford facilities here in kansas ciy, the new contract that the union setteld with ford calls for the starting wage of around $14 an hour and a huge amount of the jobs will be out sourced that are actually in the facility.
Many fast food places here are paying $10- $12 an hour starting out. Union construction wages pay way more than either the gm plant or the ford facility
The only way american automakers are going to get back on top is for them to start making a competative priced product that gets the MPG equal to those that are being imported into the states.
Americans live in a time when our nation is being flooded with cheap imports in every industry, It is time that the american people start waking up and realizing that in order for their country to get back on top economicaly they are going to have to start thinking MADE IN AMERICA with their wallets. Along with that, our government needs to set in place some equal import/export laws that allow american based companies a fair chance and stop letting CHINA and other countries flood our economy while we are not allowed to do the same in their countries.
