Video: Chrysler workers oppose Obama auto plan

Workers at the Dodge Assembly plant in Warren, Michigan, just outside Detroit, denounced President Obama's demands for more suffering and deep sacrifices when they spoke to reporters from the World Socialist Web Site on Tuesday. Many of these workers--who have seen repeated layoffs, cuts in bonus pay and wage and benefit concessions--were outraged at the conditions placed on loans to the automakers. These conditions mean that many workers will lose their jobs and those who remain in the plant will take drastic cuts in their living standards.

1. Agreed, should the auto workers become slave laborers,

and not even be able to afford the cars they build for the rest of the country?
