IF $10 Million is taken back from a CEO & given to 150,000 ‘workers’, each ‘worker’ will get $66.66 in a year’s time.

“workers” punch in & they punch out.

CEO’s work every hour of the day—7 days a week.

A strike is seen as the last resort that unionized workers have when bargaining with the, “evil company!’
I say, “stay at the bargaining table and hammer the differences out . Be realistic, both sides, and don’t hamstring the company or the union.
Unfortunately, the leaders will not bend and a strike happens, crippling both company and worker. Who wins? Neither side. Who suffers? The Public.
It is difficult to bargain with people who don’t understand business. In the end,
the unions are a plague to our economy.

Nothing of value was lost, GM doesn’t make anything worthwhile. Let alone quality.

By the way, the plant shut down by this strike makes the Cadillac XT4 and Chevrolet Malibu. Nothing of value is being lost because both of those things are awful.

Those guys who got laid off can learn to code. That’ll come in handy as GM employs robots to build cars. Someone has to code software for the robots.

What difference does it make. The US no longer has a viable auto industry anyway.

With the possible exception of Tesla.

Indeed it’s more about greed pay up to $130.00 (some areas)an hour and a 4 day work week.

Biden if for it it gives the chance to hire illegals for a 3 day work at 3 shifts a week and welfare.

Every illegal in the country drives up healthcare costs for everyone.

The companies will hire aliens, the UAW will drop the members who have been layed off before supporting them, sign up the aliens, and pocket the difference. This is what UNITE Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees (UNITE!) did to NY workers in 1990.
