on Mitt Romney Says.... at 12:26 11/19/2008..one a side note the reason that we never made many eco friendly cars was because the only thing we made money on was trucks and suv's when gas prices went up people stopped buying those cars and those plants suffered also now people cannot get credit to buy cars.. and to the comment he made about us making bad cars I have to say at my plant we make the Malibu which has won many awards and gets very very good gas mileage.

on Mitt Romney Says.... at 12:21 11/19/2008Just thought I would let people know that the things he is saying about changes in pay needed are already being done I'm a new hire at General moters I make 14 dollars an hour less then the person who works next to me and I will max out at only one dollar an hour more then I make now so I will never get close to making what the older employees make also I have to wait almost a year to get any benefits and the benefits I do get are a lot less then what they used to be I dont even get any retirement beneifits besides a psp I put into. I believe we do need the bailout as otherwise the amount of jobs affected is massive there are so many suppliers and part makers and sales people ect ect ect but changes need to be made also which they already are doing and the Union doesnt really have any bargining power with the economy in the state it is anyways.
