    Of course they can do more. Look at their profits. Look at their executive pay.

        You realize gm shareholders lost everything in the last bailout. That includes the workers who had stock as well.

        Many people are myopic and forget the workers are shareholders. My dad was a uaw for most of his life. I lost all his shares in the BK. I only kept them for sentimental reasons but they’re gone.

        Another thing to note, pension plans are some of the largest shareholders. So you’re literally mocking union workers.

            Yes. Since pension plans are some the largest shareholders. People don’t understand who shareholders really are. They think they’re some mythical person when really it’s pension funds.
