I'm very busy, but from what I'm hearing on the news right now, the car company bail out failed -- YEAH! -- because Republicans in the Senate want to set a pay scale for auto workers to match the pay scale of 'foreign car workers" in the South, where they are in "right to work" states. This, essentially, cuts the pay for many autoworkers.
But, the same Republicans didn't want CEO pay cuts because they said it would prevent the best people from trying to lead the financial companies out of the mess they created because the pay would not be enough.
Let that marinate and tell me why that isn't class warfare?
This is an example why I'm against nationalization of these companies. Politics gets involved in running the companies and making decisions instead of what makes good business sense, although "good business sense" seems to be an oxymoron for the financial companies right now. So, extend that to the VA and the disgraceful way they handle health care. Why should we have a single health plan as mandated by the government?
