no I am anti-US auto worker. and let's face it. americans have fallen waaaaaaay behind in their productivity in the last 30 years. I blame that on unions. less work for more pay is not a good recipe for success or quality. the qulaity standards here are not nearly as high as in other countries.
NAFTA, GATT, all these free trade agreements have greatly crippled US manufacturing but that was the main reason behind Nixon's visit to China back in the 70s, the US needs strong tariffs to help bring back manufacturing but that will not be happening anytime soon unfortunately
