Is this not a violation of Anti-Trust laws at least on some level?
The UAW has said that they will not keep the ownership they have been given, but will sell it to fund health benefits for its members. So, Obama has really just given the UAW a bailout and thrown the investors who took the greatest risks to the wolves. Talk about ‘fairness’ and spreading the wealth around.

Until that problem is solved, it will be difficult for them ever to compete.
