Default Goodyear contract

IMHO it stinks. The closing of the plant in Texas may have been inevitable, but the decreased wage for new hires is unexceptable to me. It is divide and conquer in it's truest form. While it has been done recently in the auto industry (under the guise of keeping jobs in this country), I still believe that years from now this tactic will come back to haunt the union's in more ways than they can imagine. Just another case of the "Walmartization" of this once great country.
