Salary, overtime, health benefits, pensions, stock options, bonuses, sick leave, maternity leave, holidays, lunch breaks, smoke breaks...some or ALL of these are offered by 99 of 100 companies in this country. Now, let’s make it “fair”?!

What exactly do these people consider “wages” to be?

Right now we need to be increasing employment here in America. The best way of doing that involves simultaneously lowering the standard of living. The solution is not more education, sharing the wealth of executives, high tech, etc. The solution is bring jobs back to America that have been taken from us by countries that are able to do the same jobs cheaper. The solution will result in more people working in low paying jobs, which is better than no job at all. It will be better for individuals and better for the overall American economy and America’s position in the world.

Spoken like a moron who understands zilch about economics. Maybe he knows more about Kenyan economics: one cow equals two goats.

A lightweight, over-his-head fool.

What exactly does he think the pay and benefits of the workers are? He is so ignorant that he thinks it just happens? Like magic? What a putz!

They are. The workers' share is called wages and benefits.

So, that means the UAW members should have taken pay cuts when GM and Chrysler lost money?

Another “Obamaism” Just what we all need...

American union ‘workers’ are voting themselves “PRESENT” most of the time. They do not exert any extra effort- nor do they try to learn something better to make more money at their company, or even a higher challenging job.

Just like NObama-—voting “PRESENT” is the limit of their imagination.

EVERY American ‘worker’ can participate in the ‘profits’ of any company:

BUY STOCK IN THAT COMPANY!!!!!

Giving ‘workers’ like those I knew in various union jobs when I was a kid more money to do the same childish tricks like putting coca cola bottles inside the door of a car at American Motors isn’t my idea of a person who truly care to make himself or herself a better life. They never seem to learn that most of their actions only COST the company money- & helps to drag down the profits. Punching in & out each other’s time cards is outright fruad- & occurs everywhere, even in white collar jobs.

The Unions seem to have a strangle hold on NObama.

No wonder there is so much vitriol aimed at Sarah Palin & Michelle Bachman.

I don’t think they have the same sympathy for the mindless jerks I had to work with.

"[T]he benefits cannot just translate into greater profits and bonuses for those at the top. They have to be shared by American workers, who need to know that opening markets will lift their standard of living as well as your bottom line," President Obama told the Chamber of Commerce on Monday morning as he munched on a Waygu beef and truffle breakfast sandwich and waved the back of his dainty hand at them.

I see where he is going....

He is trying to unwedge the capital that is on strike via "sharing" with the workers, and "invest" in green schemes and hire with them, I'll give you a Corp Tax Cut. His job numbers suck and he knows it, he wants a tit-for-tat.

Wait him out, any deal he makes would be socialistic. Don't bite Congress!

Omama is a socialist, communist, statist, radical Islamist who is tearing down our once great USA. He hates private capitalism and this “sharing” is actually a money grab to fatten the labor union bosses who contribute to the Democrats, only some crumbs are meant to be allowed to the union member wage earners.

Pass: I do NOT want to be paid in company stock, scrip or anything but specie. I'll take dollars but only because I am forced to do so.

Coo’. As long as they’re willing to get docked for the losses. Or did they really think that didn’t go both ways?
