Anyone want to bet that the union members still get paid while plants are idle? Paying people not to work makes conserving cash much more difficult.

Yep. One of the many reasons that giving them money is insane. GM loses 4055.00 on each vehicle it sells. We would be doing them a favor to prevent them from making vehicles. Until they have a plan to change that equation they are bankrupt no matter how much money we gift them.

I think we'll get a well handled bankruptcy that will break the unions - then the auto industry will recover. I'm all for people making money but this has gotten a little out of control
