My question is how will Tyson's Food in Arkansas complete with Ford Motor in Michigan. Maybe the Ford Foundation and the Tide's Foundation and a few other Progressive thinking foundations can come up with a way to enlighten people into centralized agreement that illegal immigration slave trading is a liberal philosophy representing good-intentions for all God's chilens.

When my late husband retired from General Motors in 2000, he was making $25 an hour--base pay; he often worked overtime at double the base pay. Do the math. Top of the line benefits--and not a dime was taken out of that base pay. Put on furlough for a year while the plant was retooled--still got the base pay. I worked as a secretary for 40 years--and was lucky if I got half of that. Excuse the schadenfreude! The American auto industry and the unions dug themselves into this hole.

Ford won't be far behind. The GM management is looking at what’s going on over at Chrysler, and they see the handwriting on the wall. Ford won’t be far behind.

GM then employs only illegal aliens in its' U.S. production facilities, and pays them a pittance. The Wall Street Journal would be thrilled. So would "see you at the bill signing" Bush. As well as "Amnesty John McCain". I plan on taking a "siesta" this November. That's Spanish for sitting on my butt. GM proposes firing, excuse me, ” buys out” all U.S. citizens.
