Sirs -
Shame on you for using a link to an article to back up your story without reading that article first (or ignoring what i says".
You linked the text "based on a spurious claim" that UAW workers earn "significantly more" than non-union workers.
The NY Times article you linked does debunk the "spurious" claim that UAW workers earn $73 an hour. However, the article goes on to say:
"But the defenders are not right to suggest, as many have, that Detroit has solved its wage problem. General Motors, Ford and Chrysler workers make significantly more than their counterparts at Toyota, Honda and Nissan plants in this country."
Either you are guilty of shoddy work, or trying to pull one over on your readers in pursuit of your own agenda. Please own up to whichever it is.
