Turning people against other people is the oldest tool in the kit, it never wears out. Like hell fire.

They deserve a contract that sustains them in the middle class," Biden said.

They had one, before you came along.

Two weeks back...he said a strike would NEVER happen. That doesn’t seem to be working out.

UAW members already have a generous profit-sharing program (see link). They’re striking for salary, not profit-sharing.

Damn , never take sides during a strike. Trump would have called both group together to sort out their differences.

All new vehicles are seriously overpriced now.
UAW demands will only increase the costs.
Family incomes are decreasing - $2000 on average this year.
Companies may have no choice but to move overseas.
Buyers will have no choice but to buy foreign.

The federal government is forcing the the big US auto companies to make EVs, which they lose money on.

Top that off, the EVs might have expensive warranty problems because they are loaded with new, unproven parts.

Future profits are iffy in the coming years.

Perhaps delayed, contingent profit/loss-sharing might be possible.

For example, once all 2024 products go off warranty then maybe profit-sharing at that time would be possible, with clawbacks in case of post-warranty recalls and product liability payouts.

If UAW members think the shareholders have it too good, perhaps UAW members should open brokerage accounts and buy shares.

The strike is a joke only three plants purely symbolic like this crap coming out of Biden’s mouth.

The UAW isn’t going to hurt the economy and Biden with an all-out strike.

Perhaps Joe should end the $7500 EV subsidies the EU is complaining about and make income earned in factories up to $60,000/year 1040 tax exempt.

Who owns the companies? Are employees now considered owners?

Some starving artists would like to have a chat with Hunter.

Some federal clerks will be stopping by the White House to collect ‘fair share’ money from an overpaid fool.

Workers on the line make as much as, if not more, than a degreed engineer.

Why doesn’t mail-in ballots Biden demand that U.S. automakers reinvest profits into their companies?

Maybe then they could deliver better and more reliable products their customers. That would probably result in them having more customers which means more income and more tax revenues.

Oh wait, taxes are now primarily used as a punishment for the productive class. The “big money” is created by the Federal Reserve’s printing press.
