Academics salaries lower than automobile industry worker salary?
good quote from the comments: "I have known auto workers and PhDs. You would go a long way to find a PhD who could work an auto plant job. From this I conclude that a PhD isn't worth an auto worker's pay. I know a UAW guy from Allison Transmission in Indianapolis who is building an airplane in his garage. He's probably done by now. I saw it while it was under construction and I could see the quality of workmanship inside. Who would you trust to build your plane? This UAW guy or that humanities professor who is so good at committee politics? What would you do with a plane that only turns left?"
