4.7 billion in profit is not enough for them. :facepalm:
And then the Republicans will call the displaced workers with 20 and 30 years experience dead beats. The CEO will say he saved all that money and get a huge bonus and some dip shit will say he earned the money and we should not tax him.
Nice country we have become.

Of course BMW couldn't get away with this crap in Germany, where unions are much stronger.
But unions destroy capitalistic economies, am I right?
But...but...Germany's economy is in much better shape than ours.
WTF?
Maybe one of those economic geniuses, doggie or The Maggot will be along to explain.
By American standards, Germany remains a workers' paradise. It even stands out in labor-friendly Western Europe, with its unions still retaining significant power and its workers enjoying more time off than those in most other countries.
The average hourly cost of an auto worker in western Germany is the highest in the industry, at $40.80. That compares with $35.40 in Japan, $34.80 in the United States, $27.60 in France and $5.40 in Slovakia, where Volkswagen has an assembly plant.
Moreover, strict job-protection laws make it hard for companies to fire German employees, and those who are laid off receive substantial unemployment benefits.

Maybe some of these union haters could explain this.:shrug: I wonder if Germany also has wonderful laws to give tax breaks to corporations who jump overseas. A wonderful anti american law the right wingers love. Pieces of shit.
Maybe Michele Bachmann can explain to those BMW employees that our founding fathers worked tirelessly to abolish socialistic unions in our country until they were no more.
And that's why the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor... :mj07: :mj07:
