One for our US posters, if I may...
I read here that the vote on the concessions Ford wants is fairly tight at the moment. Can you guys give your point of view as to why you think this is? Is it a case of Ford being better off than GM and Chrysler, therefore the locals don't think they need the concessions, or are there other reasons? It seems to me the Union has 2 options, much like the ones they had with GM and Chrysler - approve the changes and keep their jobs, with some layoffs probably being inevitable, or have Ford go for a bailout as well and start talking up a chapter 11, in which case everyone loses? Can you guys please provide some education on this? |
