Do you think executives from Detroit's Big Three are asking for too much government support and not doing enough to control health-care costs themselves?
Supplier Comments
- “The UAW health-care plan is not sustainable.”
- “They should have formed the Big Three Insurance Co.”
OEM Comments
- “Corporate America is bearing a burden that European governments carry. We need balance on national health care.”
- “We need to hold the UAW accountable for competitive disadvantage.”
- “I can't be the only one who thinks spending BILLIONS for health care is ridiculous!”
- “Health-care costs are high because of the lawyers. Limit the outrageous awards, and health-care costs will come down. Or we could outlaw lawyers.”
Do blue-collar workers at your company appear willing to share more health-care costs?
Supplier Comments
- “Sharing costs is better than no benefits.”
- “Benefits are decreasing while premiums are increasing already.”
- “Blue-collar workers don't understand they are competing with foreign labor.”
- “Cuts in health insurance are a direct pay cut.”
- “No one wants to pay more for less. Also, Tier 1 suppliers tend to resent Big Three employees' lucrative benefits and bonuses.”
OEM Comments
- “Blue-collar workers must share health-care costs, or we will go bankrupt.”
- “We are so used to getting something for nothing. It's about time we shoulder part of the burden and be responsible.”
