Obama operates on what is popular and easy, not what is hard and necessary.

In regards to this, though, I'm pretty worried considering that I live in Ohio.

Wow, I totally agree with you.

I'm sure we disagree on what is necessary, though. Tongue

The UAW isn't at fault for this, it was incompetent managing and an inability to adapt to the changing times. At their base wages, UAW workers don't get paid a great deal more than non-unionized manufacturing plants. If you want to blame anyone, blame ballooning healthcare costs to start with.

(Also they've agreed to a number of cuts as of late.)
