Sallies, hourly wage earners should not begrudge Auto-Workers for their wages!  Next, let say autoworkers make a hundred thousand a year, don't CEO's make 200 times more than that each year?  If so, how do CEO's justify their day, as being worth 200 times more, than a skilled machinist?  Painting a picture of a CEO's day: they look at numbers and talk on the phone, how can this be worth, 200 times more than a factory worker?  If it is about status quo, CEO's estates can be used, as bed-n-breakfasts or family dude ranges.  These CEO's have become like feudal lords, which Americanism has been trying to overcome, since the inception of our nation: let us find proportion and realism between individuals    

    Arvin one thing I well suggest is that auto-workers should consider taking part of their daily wage, and apply it to pensions and insurances; still re-structuring should do no harm to citizens.
