New study comparing health costs and outcomes
Sorry to keep bringing this up like a broken record, but it is what it is.
Then there's this regarding the Chrysler buyout:

Then there's this regarding the Chrysler buyout:
"By unwinding a nine-year-old merger between Chrysler and Daimler-Benz of Germany, Cerberus is also taking on Chrysler’s $18 billion obligation for health care and pensions for employees and retirees.
Any efforts to sharply reduce those perks — which Chrysler can afford but says represent a cost burden of $1,500 a vehicle — will probably put it at odds with the U.A.W."
