Default Re: Mattel Inc. worth more than G.M.

The papermakers union strike at a paper mill in Western NC caused the mill owner to close the mill and file bankruptcy... The avg wage at the mill (in a very rural mountain town) was $28 per hr. The mill is gone and now what do you think the avg wage around there is? 10-15 an hour? Less than what the owner was asking for... 15-20 per hour. But now the union can say... look we put them in chpt 7.. we will do it to you too!
