The UAW has become a bloated parasite that needs to be killed.<BR/>Unfortunately, like the Big 3 somewhere along the way, the message of worker and managerial partnership turned into a profitable business more interested in churning out cash than caring for anything beyond their own greed.<BR/><BR/>All of them need to go into bankruptcy, but despite the truth of that statement, I am not sure the current economy could handle a ripple of that magnitude.<BR/><BR/>Do we do the right thing and let a million jobs (most conservative estimates put the job loss at somewhere around 1.2M jobs) vanish over night or do we step in and use them as a cheap (relatively) job bill?<BR/><BR/>I am a fiscal conservative, but I can not discount the number of families that would be destroyed to support my principles. <BR/><BR/>Time for some hard choices.<BR/><BR/>Warmest Regards.<BR/>An American LiberalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
