This move by the People's U of M educated Bob King is really no surprise. A marriage of world wide unions should be easy to accomplish. If anything, the unions around the world are even more pink than the UAW leadership and in King's case, that's going some. It will be very interesting to see if Maobama has the pull to get Marchionne to go along with the scheme. A worldwide strike against the auto industry or targeted strikes against overseas supplier could make it more difficult for the domestic automakers at contract time.
