Don't be ridiculous, do you think the manufacturers are going to adhere to health and safety labor laws on their own? The day to day problems are not between labor and upper management, it's the first line management that try to cut corners. And often there's too much middle management between the two for good communication.
Yes there was some stupid programs going on for awhile, but the UAW didn't come up with these on their own, the companies were just as guilty.
The Germans give more money, and vacation, than the UAW gets here, and have done ok because they've funded those obligations.
