    starvation wages at Hyundai

    Hyundai does not pay those wages. look into their wage scale for a good cry. I spoke to a fulltime, with overtime worker at the Montgomery Hyundai plant who made less than $25,000 in a year and had his children on state health insurance. No health insurance at all for his wife. I could not believe these southern Senators: I'm for workers, against Unions!! Bailout are against conservative values!! Every one of them supported huge payments to get those foreign commpanies into their states. I also understand that the foreign countries are bailing out their own car companies.
