I'm not trying to say that the jobs should only be worth $0.80 an hour.
I do believe that the $35.00 PLUS to start that they get at the local GM
plant to bolt a freaking bumper on a truck is just a TAD bit out of line.
Can you say that the craft that I've worked at learning for the last 35
years or so is worth less than what it takes to drive a few bolts? GM, Ford
and the UAW seem to think so.
