I was watching Cavuto .. and this guy said that the UAW decides which cars are made

[Ichingcarpenter]

at which plants that its in their contracts except in California. I know, Cauvto
but I just flipped through the channels and caught it. I don't know who
the old fart he was talking to but he was 'an expert'.

Is that true?

[amdezurik]

1. all truthiness all the time

as "true" as the all UAW members make $78 bucks an hour...

[Ichingcarpenter]

2. Well, I wanted to write an e-mail debunking that crap

to Cauvto.

[liberal N proud]

3. They must just make this shit up as they go along

The people on the line at Toyota have more control over production than any other car manufacture. Some Japanese invented corporate "lean" program.

These fuckers don't have a clue.

4. Huhu uh. drool slobber drags knuckles. uuhhh yup. Das rite.

5. Yeah, next week they're tooling up for aircraft carriers instead

Nick the union guy decided he was sick of building SUV's.

Cavuto bites.............

[TahitiNut]

6. Yup. That's why ALL cars are made in factories in the U.S. and none elsewhere.

It's also why UAW workers are never laid off and have $100/hour salaries and all automobile plants are unionized.

And the moon is made of green cheese and the stork brings babies.

Cavuto is a fucking liar.

7. Every time I hear his Kermit-esque annoying ass voice I want to punch him in the fucking mouth. nt

8. A product line is 'born' in Research and Development.

And R&D is strictly a "company" operation.

[michreject]

12. A product line is born in Design

Less than a quarter of designs make it into production. All production platforms approved by the Board of Directors are then developed for production.

I worked at GM Design for 30 years.

9. You forgot - his lips were moving. And, his middle name is Joe McCarthy.

Better days are coming.

10. Not only do the unions tell GM what to build, they also tell GM who to hire

and where that new hiree will work. Management has no say in how the company is run, its all decided by the line worker and the union steward.

Funny how I came from a second generation GM family, Gramps started in the late 30's, then 3 of his sons started working for GM in the 50's and 60's. I have seen and heard every GM contract from the 1960's until dad retired in the 90's when GM sold the plant he worked in to Delphi. Yet I know nothing about GM, unions, contracts and workers. But someone who neither worked in GM or had family in GM knows for a fact that the above is true, the union and workers decide how GM runs not management.

11. Cavuto is a psuedo-intellectual twat.

Why does FOX keep him?
