Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

Probably not Kevin, 'cause it just gets ugly. Then again, it's up to "we the people" to do something.

I thought that the "Pink Slime" company went out of business?

Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

John, last I heard they closed three of four plants for lack of demand for their product. I believe they filed chapter 11. That's the power of the people. We don't like it and we're not going to buy it anymore. Fortunaly the government didn't step in to bail them out with tax payer money. Oh yea, I forgot, that would be free money.

I always had a thing for Big Mac's. Like every couple of months I would get a craving! Maybe the "Pink Slime" was that "secret" ingrediant that made them so irresistable to me?:sign13:

I agree that bailouts are a tough pill to swallow. But I do beleive they were necessary to prevent millions of innocent folks from losing everything!

Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

John, you mean like the GM assembly line workers that were being compensated at $82 per hour? They dug their own graves.

Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

Funny that you mention having a Big Mac every couple of month's. I do the same ! Don't like the thought of the "Pink Slime" thingy.

Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

No UAW worker made or makes $82/hr. That's more Faux Noise bs.
Here's a good article outlining actual hourly wages, then including benefits.
THEN there is a cost associated w funding retiree pensions which the auto companies signed on to. http://www.leanblog.org/2009/02/problem-isnt-union/

Seriously, do you know of ANY auto assembly worker making $170K/yr?
Because that's what $82/hr calcs to. They actually make about $28/hr. + benefits. Sometimes it helps to think about what these numbers mean before just regurgitating them and damaging your credibility.

Re: Close to an end? Obama an illegal.
 

That is probably total compensation, which is not much. My Chevy dealer charges $100/hr labor!! So put it in perspective!!

How many hundreds of thousands would have been put out of work in the supporting industries?? Including many small businesses. The auto industry accounts for a huge amount of business in this country.
