First off the blog post was based off of a Forbes Magazine Article. You can dismiss the article wholesale, and I never said it was only the unions fault, but they are part of the problem.
However, this never ending cycle of bailing out failed business has to stop. I'm not happy with the Government bailing anyone out, but if they are going to proceed to bailout out there has to be some fundamental changes with the way the Big Three run, from management down to the UAW workers. There has to be conditions placed on this bailout otherwise its just throwing money at a failed system which never works.
Now, I don't have a dislike for unions, but in the same breath I don't have an obsessive lust for them either. I've seen firsthand how the Teacher's Union protects tenured teachers that have no place being in the classroom. I've seen how stagehands if they work a minute after midnight costs a company an extra 2 million dollars. I'm not anti-union, but I believe in a sane approach of workers and management getting along.
