THE DETROIT NEWS: Bailout
good for Detroit ,
but really good for UAW (June 14, 2012).
During this election year you will hear a lot about the
government bailout of GM & Chrysler; Obama will take credit for it and
Romney will challenge its wisdom as far as taxpayer dollars are
concerned…Romney says he could have done it differently.
The one fact that all must agree on is that the bailout did
save GM & Chrysler’s asses and preserved jobs in Michigan and overall was a
“good” thing BUT…
Obama protected the UAW with billions of taxpayer dollars
that we will never see again and that was an outright gift from Obama for what;
future political support? - with OUR money?
Yes, the bailout was a huge success but at what cost? The
same results would have occurred without bailing out the UAW.
This is my problem with Obama and I am not saying that I
will not vote for him, but his love of unionism has got to be controlled if we
are to maintain a “market economy” which means you cannot force unionism on
companies like Obama has been tending to do, unions must live or die freely;
forcing them onto workers is basic Communism and that obviously has not worked
in the past…read your history.
I am having a big problem with Obama and his unionism and I
will have to weigh that huge negative against, what I perceive are Obama
positives like social liberalism.
The unions here in Michigan are trying to put on our ballot
a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT that will prohibit any attempts to rein in union
power; making them untouchable…talk about the nerve.
While I was at the Canton Festival with my grandsons, we
were constantly approached by people collecting signatures for placing issues
on the November ballot…I said NO to all issues but my wife signed a few and
even though this is our Democratic process in action, I feel those paid
signature gatherers MISREPRESENT the issues and to me they are just scammers.
DO NOT SIGN ANY PETITIONS… the only way to be safe and not
sorry for allowing some scammers to get on the ballot.
