Teachers and other consumers don't buy a car to "support" auto workers. They buy a car to get them where they need to go affordably, without the thing having to be in the shop all the time.
"Supporting auto workers" is the problem. It's the
attitude of "you OWE me" that makes the unions seem like another type of welfare system.
