The article is true and the last sentence is why it didn't pass last week- the labor unions plain & simple.

These old blue collar political terrorists need to wake up and realize they too have had it too good for too damn long and will have to give in and sacrifice like the rest of us around the country who no longer have all the nice fancies these unions try to hold onto, as they need to become competitive and stop whining for more, as the unions are busting the auto industry and everyone knows this... If none of them saved all those high wages they were paid for years and wasted it, that is too bad. That is how life is.

Come to my region where it used to be the furniture capital of the world and today see where over 50,000 locals lost jobs because 99% of those corps going overseas for cheaper costs to do business.... And December 1st my wife's income was hit when one of last furniture companies here told her they were taking 1 work day away from all hourly workers (32 hour week now)and that they should be glad they still had a job- This is the reality us and millions are living with daily today- not all this special treatment and perks these auto workers get who most have nowhere the education or even experience as many of us...
