Ralph, I think this man is an idiot. The union (UMWA) is the reason the men make the so called big bucks they make today. The non union would not make as much as they do if it wasn't for fear that the men would organize. my husband was union and so was my father . And in the last strike the UAW supported the UMWA in their strike by send members down to help stand againt the coal company/ I would like to think that the UMWA would stand by the Auto Workers. There are a lot of people from here that went up north to work for the Auto Companies "THE BIG THREE" . They went to make money. And they made good money and have good retirements. They got their pay for an honest days work. As far as the big 3, they have got to start making cars that are more economical . Both to the environment and financially . They have the knowledge but aren't using it. As for the idiot , he probably wasn't worth fighting for . The UNION protects their own . When you don't live by the law of the Union or workplace -----you should be FIRED . HE SOUNDS LIKE A SCAB TO ME. EDUCATION AND ALL. BY THE WAY THE UMWA ARE NOT UNEDUCATED OR STUPID. This is my take on the subject. I AM A FIRM BELIEVER IN THE UNION. . So that Dave fellow can take that to the FRIGGEN BANK.
