They only want a 46% raise and 40 hours of pay for 32 hours of work, plus COLA increases, plus better benefits.
The UAW should not support Democrats if they don’t like our Democrat economy.
I had to negotiate with a union once. It quickly became clear they wanted nothing to do with common sense, they only wanted to “win” the negotiation to justfiy their union dues. They ended up getting a worse deal than what we offered because they were so focused on just getting what they asked for.
And yet, none of the three companies seems to be opposed to raises and better benefits. It’s seems to be about the size of the raises, and which benefits.
As for the 32 hour work week, this is an increasingly common request among office workers. Union factory workers can’t work from home. 70 hours was once the norm, and then it became 40. Now there is some movement towards 32. Stay tuned…it’s probably coming to a workplace near you.
So, it would seem, are French-style unemployment levels and general economic stagnancy.
Given that the American car no longer has any clout (at least if it’s not Tesla or Rivian), the notion of fat-cat Big Three execs pinching pennies of their aggrieved workers no longer has the same credibility it did back in 1950, or even in 1980.
Some people just really don’t want to have to work. And, rather than accept the fact those who don’t hate work will probably enjoy better compensation, they seek to drag everyone down to their level of mediocrity. The REAL definition of equity.
