Throwing Retirees Under the Bus

Jay Gould said he could pay one half of the working class to shoot the other half. The majority of Detroit News cyber pollers prove Jay’s claim. Conservatives generally believe in enforcing contracts. They changed the bankruptcy law to make it harder to get out of paying debts, which is to say fulfilling contracts. Nevertheless, when it comes to retired workers, the majority say throw them under the bus.

[PS: Bob from Detroit might want to use spell check, or at least proofread before posting. But, BrooklynDodger has made similar mistakes in the past.

Is it fair that some UAW retirees are asked to pay more for healthcare as the company faces hard financial times?
Yes 55.09%

Just because the UAW has been able to avoid that in the past doesnt mean they should be immume to it at any time for all reasons... Join the real world, and help your former employer stay in business. Woudlnt you rather have a bit less in benifits, than NO benifits.
