Hello COC,
That's fine but the UAW votes. The URAW doesn't. Republicans could choose to stand behind their word that they look out for workers, or they could just show their true colors instead. One way gets you votes. The other gets votes against you. Your choice.

Hello Celticguy,
Maybe they should lower the greedy salaries of the top execs so they could lower the car prices. Maybe they shoulda put the bail out money into lowering car prices to sell more units. Maybe they have a PR problem. Who knows. I tell you one thing that struck me is how the executives handle it when there are thin times. A local company I know had a rough patch for a while so they couldn't give any raises. And you know what they did? During that time, the executives took no salary at all. Zero. And it's not like their normal salary was hundreds of times the average worker pay. More like 10-15 times. That's how a good company is operated. The people who have money at risk in the company are dedicated to making it work. That means being willing to delay the big payoffs that go with risk.
Who says?
A UBI is inevitable. It's only a matter of time until it is begun.

Im guessing thats universal base income.
Who funds that ?
Please dont say rich people, that will never happen.
Back to the subject at hand...
Obama gave UAW an ownership stake in GM so it bears at least partial responsibility for management failings.
Unions obsoleted themselves when they won federal protections. OSHA keeps them safe, wage rules prevent abuse. This strike us about taking the spotlight off the same sorts of inion management fraud that forced BO to take the obscene actions he took.
"Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." Joseph Stalin
The USA has lost WWIV to China with no other weapons but China Virus and some cash to buy democrats.
Wrong of course. The unions felt they had to do it to save the companies from going out of business. They took a huge bite to save them. As usual, the companies never think about fair play.
Obviously you never worked in an auto factory. It is loud, dirty nasty work.
That is not why. They strike to get improved working conditions, healthcare and other benefits. You can thank auto workers for making all the benefits that you get possible. The 40 hour workweek. overtime pay, vacations and safer working conditions among others. There are lots of reasons to strike. This time they gave back a lot to save the companies. The company should have returned the favor. The incredible profits GM got are because of the unions caring about the company staying in business.
TRUMP WILL TAKE FORTY STATES...UNLESS THE SAME IDIOTS WHO BROUGHT US THE 2020 DUNCE-O-CRAT IOWA CLUSTERFUCK CONTINUE THEIR SEDITIOUS ACTIVITIES...THEN HE WILL WIN EVEN MORE ..UNLESS THE RED CHINESE AND DNC COLLUDE, USE A PANDEMIC, AND THEN THE DEMOCRATS VIOLATE ARTICLE II OF THE CONSTITUTION, TO FACILLITATE MILLIONS OF ILLEGAL, UNVETTED, MAIL IN BALLOTS IN THE DARK OF NIGHT..

Interesting point. Let the UAW vote themselves out of jobs. Pretty soon the only humans you'll see at the car factories will be in $3000 suits. The UAW can go on permanent strike and no one will care, especially the big wigs at the big 3. Oh sure, the unions might get the democommies elected, but they won't be able stop AMERICAN companies from doing what they have to do to stay in business, or else they'll take the money and run and laugh their asses off at you commies trying to run the S.P.S.P.P.U.T.P.#17(Socialist People's Solar Powered Pick Up Truck Plant #17)

Not according to the thread title.That's what I thought too. I never heard of striking to keep from getting laid off. Hope it works for them. I don't get any benefits. I sign the paychecks.UAW On Strike Against GM Plan To Close Factories, Lay Off Workers, Despite Trump.
