Go Fiat!

I know that the auto industry is very important to the economy, especially in this area, but I couldn't help but get more and more frustrated as the situation with the failing companies continues. Then, the numbers came out on what the salaries and benefits were. Then I got angry and disappointed. Isn't it a bit selfish, and unrealistic to expect $70-50 from a failing company. Even more so, when taxpayer dollars are keeping that company afloat? Why should, a student who works part time, have to support some one's $70/hr salary through my taxes...oh, and there's the $40/hr for the worker who has no shifts but can't be fired. They expect everyone to make sacrifices for them without willing to give anything up themselves? They make more in one month than my entire family combined. I would understand those wages if the company was doing well. Then it would be more than fair for the auto companies to share the wealth. But now, it just feels like greed. So when Fiat announced that they would pull out of the deal unless labour costs were reduced, part of me couldn't help but feel a bit apathetic. Welcome to the real world, where you can't get blood from a stone.
