Like I said, I hope I'm wrong. I'd like to see them succeed, but don't know if you mean good considering it's GM or good enough to sell around the world.

your pal,
Fred

That would be a labor violation. The NLRB and courts have ruled many times that an employer cannot close shop and reopen in a non-union state (or country), without compensating the former union employees.

They need to build cars for all markets. Given the number of Pria (Prius's) I'm seeing here in CT, I'd say there's a market for an efficient basic vehicle, as well as a market for "fun" cars. They can't put all their eggs in one basket.

your pal,
Fred

Yep - I hope that we're wrong. Some of our money is riding on this thing after all! (Not that I've invested my own money in it, but involuntarily I'm a tiny part of the 60% US stake).

I'm not optimistic so far, but I'm pulling for them, if only selfishly!

If there were a group that needed a union in some places.....but the heads of that one are one of the bigger scumbag extortionist crooks there are.

I wouldn't bother. The president is doing a good job getting us laid off in my sector. Don't need to rock the boat.

yeah - but I'd be out of work come October, after a year and a half on strike.
