“Usually a sensationalist local TV expose is easy to dismiss. However, we can even forgive Detroit TV station WJBK’s use of rock songs as the Fox2 station showed Chrysler factory workers taking their half-hour shift break at a park, drinking beer and smoking marijuana before finishing their work day. The Jefferson North Plant in Detroit is one of Chrysler’s flagships, manufacturing the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. It’s also the factory President Obama visited a few weeks ago to praise American manufacturing.” “It’s the same plant where President Obama stood in July, praising Chrysler auto workers and saying “I would bet on the American worker any day of the week.” The local TV station said it began following the workers just five days after Obama’s visit. Chrysler went through a government-led bankruptcy in 2009 and took .8 billion from the federal government. “The fact that we’re standing in this magnificent factory today is a testament to the decision we made,” said Obama in July.” “The video really does speak for itself, but the reporter summarizes why this is so egregious: The metro Detroit economy is on the path back from the abyss, and part of that recovery is to overcome the stereotypes of union workers that are reinforced in this video.” “The Fox2 news crew went to the park for 10 days, and there were autoworkers drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana every day. Chrysler representatives said that many of the employees in the video have already been suspended …

From Wrestling News Live: smashedmedia.us In this interview from “Wrestling News Live,” former wrestler Scott Hall aka Razor Ramon openly talks about his struggles with substance abuse and recommends staying away from drinking and drugs.
So what! They work hard. They can do whatever they want on their break. They’re punctual and there were no accidents. Obviously they can handle their liquor.
Lol..that wouldv’e been a big buzz killer for anyone gettin caught like that
Government money..?
=
*taxpayer money
At least they are punctual.
@Sumoto999 sorry union scumbag……I drive quality Japanese cars and your a worthless piece of shit
Unions are the enemy……must be destroyed! I drive a Japanese Car that is built very well unlike the American crap
Reporters can spin a report any way they want. These guys are only a handful of workers and they don’t operate the entire factory of I’m guessing a thousand workers. This reporter should cover what he knows best which is judging fags at a dick sucking contest.
SO what. they can spend their lunch
however they want
Watching this just gets to me. I go to school and get my buisness degree I get out and I’ve been applying for jobs for almost six months. Obama said he has confidence in the American worker. Sorry to rant I know people are much worse off then me but it’s just really horrible. Nobody wants to bail anyone else out. No just the companys that bring the government money.
@offdutyofficer55 What kind of business do you own, a brothel? BTW, your name kind of gives away your union bias. Just saying.
hahahahaha!!! that was awesome
A Chrysler worker driving a Ford Mustang? Traitor! If the man in that RAM had any loyalty he would put that name of his truck to use and smash that maggot into the ground!
Toyota and Honda do perfectly fine without unions. Their workers get payed around 43 bucks an hour. They also offer cheaper cars that are made in the USA with MORE AMERICAN PARTS. I can’t believe anyone defends this union scum, especially the UAW. You guarantee a man’s pay and he’ll never work hard again.
Respond to this video… You know the funny thing about this video is that the reporter and his crew probably headed straight for the bar after filming the piece! He should report on the CEO’s that don’t have to spend half their lunch hour drinking or doing drugs, they have private offices where they can do that anytime! Don’t forget these are the same guys that are buying the goods and services that you or your company sells! Just for the record, I own a business! Workers lunch private
why dont ford,gm and chrysler move their plants to non-union states in the south?
Im neither pro or anti union, but in all fairness, you can drink or smoke pot on break at any job. regardless of a union. The only difference is what happens if you get caught.
@xChuckNorrisKickx They need to do drugs just to conceal their corrupt souls. Then, they probably fly to some Caribbean islands on weekends and rape an underage girl. And these are the people you worship at their altar of rape. Nice going pal.
P.S. I’m an investor. I know how the pigs at the Wall Street behave. Go back to your suburban life, decorate yourself with used condom and gorge on roasted peanut.
@ninuxy You fucking fag, I never said they were ethical or honest people. What I said is that they work hard and don’t have time during the day to do drugs and get drunk. Go to fucking wall street some time you working class poor piece of shit, you might learn something. Meanwhile, blue collar assholes are pretty much all like the idiots seen in this video.
@xChuckNorrisKickx Haha, ya, the hard working Wall Street employees who collect millions by shifting money around, doing massive amount of Coke off of some prostitute’s ass are more ethical than these “animals.” The very ones that raped and pillaged should be awarded with emblem of integrity while the very people who had nothing to do with the global financial collapse that has put 50-100 million people around the world under the poverty line again should go homeless.
Ya, go fondle their balls.
@guysenjem hmmmmm i’d put my money on homosexual encounters
@ninuxy People who work on wall street don’t have time during the working day to blow drugs and hammer down booze you jackass. They work long hours under high stress all day long. These blue collar animals are lazy, surly, and belligerent. They should never have been bailed out. Let them live homeless on the streets fucking animals.
Typical blue collar trash. This is the sort of trash your hard earned tax dollars have protected. Fuck all of them.
OMG, who would have thought that some American blue collar workers drank a beer on lunch break! Breaking news! I wonder if FOX will follow bankers and CEOs to see if they have a beer or fine wine at lunch. I’m sure none of them do drugs or have homosexual encounters. LOL.
This does not surprise me at all.
You stupid fucks, dont you aw know these are nothing more than paid Fox News actors. The time don’t add up.
AYO Its Survey Time! How Many Came To See The NWO?
i think its pretty cool that he’s speaking about it… its from HIS mouth. No one else can make up his problems for him. I dont want the bad guy to be a pitty party but i think that sharing his problem to the world is a good thing, because its real. addiction is realer than a motherfucker. im just glad he’s in good spirits about it all.
breaks my heart
I hope hall pulls through but I am expecting to wake up one day and find out hall passed away from a drink and drug overdose
@SuperJuliusC He’s on a bunch of heart meds too. So any drugs or booze that he adds to that mix is potentially lethal.
@InfiniteWhizBang Okay – Didn`t know that.
But I still think that he wont die on a heart attack or something like that.
@SuperJuliusC The pace maker helps.
@InfiniteWhizBang Well he seems to have a strong heart – That probably means that he will end in an alcoholic dementia.
I hope Hall survives his addictions.
nwo 2011 nash hall x-pac
