Slash cost by $70,000 per year per employee How much do you make Joe? Just think how great things would be if we "slashed" that by $70K! As long as you are "slashing" other peoples paycheck, let's look at yours. Why won't you tell us what you make Joe? Certainly you are not afraid we might not think you are worth it. This post represents the total lack of objectivity that is prevalent amongst the pro-union camp. Nevermind the fact that these people are grossly overpaid for their respective skill sets. Nevermind that the result is companies that can't compete globally or even maintain a modicum of financial viability. Nevermind that by overpaying these employees all of the supporting jobs -- dealerships, parts suppliers, etc. -- are put at risk. What matters is that we not impair the unions.
