GM-Chrysler-Ford ~ OCCUPY & SEIZE ~ workers' ownership & control
Capitalism isn't working ~ time for socialism!
On Thursday night, Republicans in the US Senate succeeded in filibustering the newest draft of the $14 B auto bailout bill. The Bush Administration and Treasury Department moved quickly to assure everyone that they would not allow Chrysler and GM to fail, and that they were considering committing some of the $700 B financial bailout money to the cause. Many of the Republican senators who voted down the bill cited the United Auto Workers union as the reason for the breakdown of the bill. Oppositely, many union members have accused the senators in question of union busting. The Real News Network spoke to Mark Brenner, an expert on the US labor movement and auto industry, to get his opinion on the standoff.
