“You
see, by not voting in favor of union representation, the Volkswagen factory in
Tennessee now stands in violation of GERMAN
law because it does not have a formal mechanism for workers’ representation. It is very possible that the conservatives who stirred up the anti-union
sentiments before the Chattanooga vote engaged in unfair labor practices! We do
not take these things lightly in Germany! It is NOW very likely that Volkswagen
would not expand that facility. And should another VW plant ever be built in the
United States, it would likely not be built in the fucking backasswards South. I’m surprised no
media asked us about this before the vote. You Americans are so fucking stupid.”
Bernd
Osterloh, head of Volkswagen’s works council, whose comments
contradict promises and very anti-union warnings offered last week by Sen. Bob Corker
