There is very little that GM atually produces. The majority of the components of the GM car is a product of outsourcing. If GM fails, 2,100 other companies that supply GM with parts fails with it. Not to mention the mass job loss.
That being said, they need to eliminate labor unions. They do not promote capitalism and they do not nourish a competitive marketplace.
Just my 2 cents.... but I still am torn on the idea.

And they are no longer essential to workers being treated fairly. There are more than enough laws on the books these days that were legislated because of what the initial purpose of Unions were.
Now they're just as greedy as any of the big wigs.
