   Do you have kinfolk that worked there?   
      
   Personally, if they couldn't save and plan over those 20 years to   
   heck with them.  They were probably overpaid for what they did in the   
   first place.  If GM didn't have to pay some 'unskilled' worker $40   
   per hour to bolt on bumbers or tires, they would still be doing a   
   brisk business in Canada.  Buzz and his herd priced all of the   
   workers out of the contest.
