Workers at an auto parts supplier are losing their jobs two days before Christmas, and a GM bailout won't change that.

There are pro's and con's to unions. I belong to one but half the time our contract is under negotiation. Plus, some people take adavantage of it and don't work nearly as hard as others because they rely on their union to protect them.

But then there isn't any motivation to do the things that take more knowledge or experience or even risk to your life.

I agree, it is not practical for everyone to make the same wages, every job is different.
