Black Lake Golf Course in Onaway, Mich is apart of a thousand acres retreat. On these acres there is a beautiful gym with two full-sized basketball courts, an Olympic-size indoor pool, exercise, weight room, table-tennis, pool tables, a sauna, beaches, walking, bike trails, softball, soccer fields, a boat launch ramp, and a 27 million dollar family education center. Who owns such a fancy spread, a corporation with too much money that it does not know what to with it, sorry but no. So who owns such a resort, the United Auto Workers.

I did not see that one coming. What do you bet GM management and Labor leaders play golf there together?

The United Auto Workers Union should take some of their millions and buy out a portion of the automakers stock and turn them in to employee owned corporations. Then if they feel they can continue to pay themselves such high wages-so be it.

You know, I thought that unions were to get fair wages, working conditions, and medical and dental insurance for their workers, not for luxuries. I can see a camp ground where you have a cement floor, a roof over it, barbecue pits, a washroom, and a field where you can play baseball or football, plus a small confectionery, but this seems more suitable for rich dudes. Sorry I guess the United Auto Workers qualify as rich dudes.

You know, I really don't get what it is about auto workers that makes them so much more valuable than any other workers in America. It really baffles me. American cars aren't even that great. And I thought we were trying to create competition with foreign carmakers, instead we're just making our cars much more expensive than they should be. I heard that most unionworkers in the auto industry get paid for 2-3 years AFTER they get laid off. I just don't get it. People working in factories in developing countries are fighting for clean facilities and fair wages while the privileged factory workers in America have it like gold. And people wonder why so many jobs are sent overseas.
