Reply #3: More GM lies [View All]

[Sadie5]

This has been on going for some time with GM threatening to do this or that. The bankruptcy deadline was looming over their heads which is why they have decided to act now. The workers originally at Delphi have already been placed or will be placed in other GM plants as positions become available. The workers which are being discussed now have union representation, but no health benefits. They must pay for those themselves. Gm does not furnish them, They are making about $16 per hour(new hires) and knew when they were hired that this might be a possibility, but with the job situation in 02 they were desperate for jobs. The article states some truths, but is full of fabrications in GMs favor. Either way it goes, Delphi has made it known that they are going to China as cheap parts are the ultimate goal. GM informed the Union a few years ago of their decision to cut the 25,000 or so jobs in the auto plants. Those will be covered by buy outs, retirements and placement in other facilities.
