Uhhh GMs financials completely beg to differ with your statement about where their money is being made.
In 2018, they made a net profit of $8.1B. In North America, they had a $10.8B pre-tax profit. They even clarified that they made $423M pretax on ALL international earnings. 95% of their earnings are here.
Let it also be known that approximately $500M of bonus checks ($10-11k/employee) was provided to all of the US employees as a result of these earnings...so it isn't like GM is just leaving these union employees hanging. The employees, however, want even larger bonuses. They speak of how many concessions they made during the Great Recession...yet they didn't have to pay a single penny back INTO GM when they lost boatloads of money.
They literally want to suck the company dry during good times, but to still be employed and we'll compensated in the bad times.
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
