Assunto: Re: Why the unions are a problem for the auto industry
Artful Dodger: I got my number from fox a couple a weeks ago, according to them it cost about $1000 more in labor to produce an American made car with a union compared to an American made non-union made car, Honda I believe, and the wages were about $80 per hour for the union made as compared to about $60 for the non union, this was on t.v. so I can't produce the quote, Even with your numbers $75,000 to sit in one place and tighten lug nuts when they come by would be a job I'd be more than happy to take

Artful Dodger: Is this benefits due to health insurance, etc.
..... Well, If the seemingly over charging health insurance companies were kept in check.. rather if what I've seen a bit corrupt.. wouldn't that bring costs down?
