The Teamster Union was Mob, or at least a subsidiary or investment. By owning the Teamsters, the Mob could funnel cash, give legit jobs and have a ready army of people who could use the extra cash. This, however, is only a coincidence until furthers connection are made. Here is another. Being a mob-run organization is, by nature, against interest. There are many reasons, including legal and financial issues. The GM and Chrysler deals also create a conflict of interest. The owner wants to have the workers work so he can make profit. The workers, the UAW being especially notorious for this, want to do as little work as possible for as much pay as possible. Having the workers own the company means that the UAW cannot strike, and the leadership will be forced to make profit while keeping the general membership happy. They cannot strike for two reasons. The first is that it will destroy their own company. The second is that Ford still has not been forced to submit; therefore, if there is a strike, Ford has the perfect opportunity to either bring in a more reasonable union or a non-unionized workforce. Indeed, Ford has that opportunity right now. The UAW was powerful because it could strike. Now it cannot. By being given what they wanted, they harmed themselves. They should have learned from the ADA, who after insisting upon fluorinated water, cost dentists money from fewer cavities. If they had bothered to read The Prince, they would know better than have purposes that work against each other or have allies who are enemies. Yet they seem to have Obama an ally. They should have picked the Teleprompter for the Team. It took me a few minutes to remember which mob method this was, but finally it clicked.
