Then again, many people not working a union job aren't really getting those now are they??

You know, there once was a time and a place for the Unions. Just the same as there was once a place for the muscle car, steam locomotive, sidewheel steamboat, and so on. However, those have seen their time, and it's time to move on.

If anything, Toyota is leading the way in everything and is really the only auto manufacturer that lives up to their slogan these days: Moving forward. They have been for some time now and will continue to do so for many years. I believe that Toyota may very well run GM into the ground if they keep going the way they are now. DaimlerChrysler may be soon behind if they don't take a round turn as Ford is trying to do. Kudos to the CEO of Ford Motor Company for being humble enough to seek out the advice of a corporation who's assembly-line process has been well-renowned. Now, just maybe, we'll see something truly remarkable from Ford come out - not the ill-designed 'Flex' concept, the GT500, and the excessively overdone new F-series Super Duty lineup.
