Like we do for every other crooked, asinine scheme Robinette and his gang support.

It’s actually not just a 40% wage increase.

When the contract is signed for only 32 hours of work, they’ll be required to one additional day of work, which will at overtime wages.

I guess the UAW wants to go the way of the Steelworkers.

IIRC, the auto makers were saying they cannot afford to give the raises and benefit increases requested by the union AND go down the EV path.

So, this gives Joe the perfect opportunity to offer up some more money to the cause.

Remember the “Look for the Union Label” ads several decades ago? They got their huge union salaries for a time then the US textile industry couldn’t support the cost. Now its rare to find a piece of US made piece of clothing. The same may go for union built vehicles.

“… sacrifices of UAW workers …”
What sacrifices? Did they work without pay? The only sacrifice I can think of is paying their union dues which then go directly into Democrat campaign funds.

Making automobiles unaffordable for the middle class while appearing to support union workers, brought to you by Biden the autocrat.

If the price of cars is too high, they won’t be sold and the auto companies will have to let go all of those union workers with their 40% higher wage.

Unions are a great example of communist greed. Capitalists don’t have anything on these gorillas.

Get a pay raise, and work 20% less hours. How will they produce more in 32 hours to cover the higher pay?

Layoffs is how, they just don’t realize that, they never do.

They won’t be happy until they force the big 3 to offshore all their jobs overseas.
