American auto workers working for American companies are the best compensated in the business by far. It makes GM, Ford, whatever less competitive. Of course alot of things make them less competitive, but the fact that their costs are highest doesn't help.

My second point is that American executives are the highest paid of all executives. If the workers have to give up some things, the execs have to give up their ridiculous salaries. This needs to happen for the good of the nation. This is also worth noting in any discussion about moving from the employer-based health insurance system.
