I know 20 years ago, our plant manager told us that everybody in the building could work for free, and it would make less than 10% difference in the cost of production. I think at that time the overall labor content in a vehicle was about $1000. One thing that has influenced health care is that years ago, GM had a huge workforce & a lot of dependents. So did a few other large companies. When the sat down to negotiate health care, they carried a lot of weight. Now much smaller companies have a lot less infuence, so the price goes up. Nobody is big enough to negotiate with the AMA & big pharma anymore.
