3. I voted yes on the contract with the knowledge I was receiving less in current wages
for the express purpose of the difference going towards our pension and other retirement benefits.

If I knew we weren't going to receive our pension and other benefits I would had wanted the difference up front. The problem is that it might had been spent by the time I retired.

We have a 401k program but that isn't mandatory. And the companies don't match our contributions.

We don't receive much in the way of profit sharing. At least with GM.

We don't receive stocks. Probably a good thing considering the way the business is operated by those in Detroit and the management idiots they hire at the plants.
