2,600 GM employees at the Janesville assembly plant will be out of a job soon as General Motors announced today that it will close the plant (and three others) by 2010.
High gas prices and a union that has always thought it was entitled to ungodly wages and benefits are to blame.

This is my website, so I talk about things that I want to talk about. This page contains my scattered thoughts that are hindered by A.D.D. and way too many grande black coffees from Starbucks. Some of the things you read may not be in the best taste, they may not be written with the most attention to detail, and there might even be a PG-Rated a-bomb scattered throughout the text. If you are not mature enough to read this, please don't. If you are, please remember that this is my personal website and none of the opinions represent that of West Bend Broadcasting, WBWI-FM, or Bliss Communications.

I didn’t see anything about the Union being part of the reason for closure in any press releases?

That was editorial.
Prices of GM vehicles are so high due to the fact that they pay their employees so much in wages and benefits that they must keep the prices high in order to make any profit. That’s all thanks to the UAW.
