Less that 15% of US manufacturing is union. This "unions are ruining

How's GM working out for ya?



Ironically, I have a neighbor that has lots of famly in the Michigan area
and for generations have made their living with one of the Big 3. They are
now out of jobs, in rough shape, and have indicated that they have no one to
blame but themselves. They let the Union take care of them all these years
and never really learned how to survive on a wage that their skills were
actually worth.
