Those Damn Unions!!

Indeed, the American automotive industry is struggling because of the evil UAW

Mulally's total compensation fell by 37% to $13.57 million in 2008, according to a proxy filing from Ford on Tuesday. He earned $2 million in salary but received no bonus. In 2009 and 2010, Mulally will also see a 30% cut while Ford eliminates merit increases and incentive bonuses for salaried workers.
What sacrifice and leadership! He has cut his pay to a mere $6,500 an hour. Bravo!!

Yeh, I feel real sorry for that poor fuck.

And Arlan Specter needs to go away, now.

Yeah, and the UNIONS were forcing the US automakers to keep making those SUV leviathans (cause that's where all the short-term profits were) instead of developing/marketing more fuel-efficient smaller cars... right.
