The worker's salaries and benefits including retirees is a large part and equally as responsible as the management ineptness is another large part. The union leadership has to justify their existence and like the bailout bill they probably decided to balk to show unity and expect a better deal later. This is not likely the last vote...maybe just in this session of Congress.
The problems with situations like this is it affects us all despite being able to show that they do not really deserve and both (mgmt and unions) show little remorse. Now we know why the Big 3 are in trouble.
