These people already are making good money compared to other industries. They want almost a half increase in pay but work a day less? Thats the problem with Americans.
to the workers that want a 46% pay increase along with working 4 days and getting paid for 5, and the $30 million CEOs, I along with a lot of people are not going to pay 60k for a base model vehicle or do 10 yr financing to pay you. a new car should not cost what a modest house used to cost just a decade ago.
Thank goodness for Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Volkswagen, etc etc………I'm driving a beautiful 2024 *****, just bought for under 30,000. Good luck with that strike fellas. Christmas coming at ya full speed and the strike funds you thought you had are getting low, very low.
Maybe we should buy Chinese cars? Let's go dark Brandon! Sure has been a lot of chaos, division, misery, inflation, social and moral rot the last 3 years!
The time has never been better than now for an upheaval in the financial structure. Auto workers took huge cuts during the crash in 2009. They haven't had a serious contract negotiations since. Truly no one's had fair negotiations since Regaen, but I digress. Any of you that still have a 9am-5pm, 40 hr, full benefits, matching 401K, thank a Union member. If not, thank the cowards you see damning Unions in the comments here.
Mean while ships massive our being loaded to make our Nation battery Powered China cars By the millions No need for American cars . They leave in imprint scars
Maybe this will get the climate protesters happy
Everybody needs a raise not just auto workers…Cost of living is high for everybody..I don't have a pension plan.😢😢
I remember strikes like this in the 1970s, we all just bought Japanese cars instead. They were better built and cheaper. Now its Korea, Europe and Japan making some great cars too in the 2020s. Shutting Ford down wont have much impact for most folks. Maybe its time they fade away. Look what all the labor nonsense did for the steel industry…faded to oblivion. I also remember the Toll Takers union strikes on the East Cost in the early 2000s (I remember techy friends laughing about it back then)…the job is almost non-existent nowadays. Automation, Software and Robotics will drive the industry, not labor. European and Asian production appears to be ahead of the curve in that area too. Strikes will accelerate the process even further…good luck humans!
Good luck with that 😂
These idiots don’t need a 40% pay increase maybe a $1.00 pay increase, they are stupid asking for that much.
They're all idiots who are gonna have no jobs😂
Tesla will have a good year in the U.S. American vehicle costs will increase excessively above the cost of a Cyber Truck, forcing low sales for the next decade.
If Bernie Sanders is involved you know there is corruption …
Buy Tesla !! They win !!! UAW might win the battle but Tesla WINS THE WAR HAHA
Could the automakers bus in overcrowded immigrants from NYC to fill in for the striking employees to produce cars? Would threatening them as Scabs be considered a Hate Crime?
I hope the UAW strike and that it last FOREVER
Unions are DESTROYING America
Let's go BRANDON
Everybody complaining about someone making 23 mil a year.
Let me tell you something….the math don't work in some of y'all's brains.
Someone help me out and I'll give you a solution.
Who is making the 40% whatever and making 23 mil a year, which company.
Or what does he/she oversee
Give me that information and I'll give you the solution.
Thankfully I don’t buy overpriced and high maintenance cars ruined by labor unions so this isn’t affecting me or anyone else in my family who also refuses to buy costly Union made vehicles.
