UAW is still not going anywhere.

I don't know who here has worked in a union manufacturing environment, but those that have are probably familiar with the union mentality.

Over and over, this mentality demonstrates that it would rather see a plant shut down entirely, and every employee get fired, than to accept any concessions like pay or benefit cuts.

This happens over and over again in many different industries. I've seen it myself, several years ago in a non-auto union manufacturing plant that I was working at. Union mentality was in full force there, so ... plant got shut down and all the jobs sent to Mexico.

The thing is though, even with how bad things have been, it's not nearly bad enough to shake loose the UAW. The Big 3 are already showing signs of recovery, they closed less dealerships than projected, and there's already optimism to get out of this.

UAW is still going to be around for a WHILE yet...
