Story Link Hmmmm, I wonder if this has anything to do with it:
Average UAW Worker Total Compensation at Chrysler is $75.86/hour ($151,720 per year)
Compared to the Total Compensation average of Toyota, Honda, Nissan (who do their complete North American car builds inside the US): $48.00/hour ($96,000 per year)
I wish I could find numbers on average management compensation as well. I'm pretty sure those are every bit as out-of-whack in comparison to the foreign car companies' domestic production too.
Almost makes you wanna take a clue-by-four to the whole lot of them.
