Personally I think the UAW has made a grave mistake with Ford. Ford can easily move production elsewhere, shutter plants here, give new models and technology to Mexico or Canada or continue to import certain models. I have a feeling that it is going to be "get even" time in the very near future.

What they should have done was agree to the concessions and went with a profit sharing clause.
