It always comes down to unions taking concessions. What about the jackass management who decided to roll the dice on sport utilities and pickup sales, even with unstable gas prices since 2005. Are they expected to take concessions? Put the blame at the right person's door. The big three deserve a serious spanking. But don't blame the autoworker. It was shortsighted management that decided to keep building 5500 lb. personal trucks that get 9 mpg. So now when you have no good or even average small fuel efficient cars, and your bloated trucks aren't selling, what do you do? Let's cut shifts and shut down plants and lose more market share. What a great plan. Actually if your average autoworker was as unskilled and stupid as most commentors like to think, I would be willing to bet Joe Lunchpail would have done a better job running the big three.
