Sorry about that, tried testing with a few methods before posting and was able to get through.
While it may appear that the UAW has negotiated very rich contracts at Stellantis, Ford and GM, don’t be fooled.
United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain has unfortunately created a witch’s brew and his 140,000 autoworkers have been drinking it. They actually think they have accomplished something, when all they have really done is put the Detroit Three on the fast track to extinction.
If you listen to the interviews every night on the news all you hear from picketers is that with the new contract, they will soon be able to afford the vehicles they are making that they can’t afford now. But, if they, in fact, get a 25% increase in wages, don’t they realize that the 25% sooner or later gets tacked onto the price of the vehicles they say they can’t afford? A $50,000 vehicle today will likely be a $62,000 vehicle next year.
Moreover, Kia, Hyundai, Toyota, Honda and all other foreign transplants will be laughing all the way to the bank. The unending push for EVs will eliminate over half of the UAW jobs in America, the other half will soon be eliminated because nobody will be buying the now unaffordable cars made by the Detroit Three.
This is a real American tragedy. The greed that Fain keeps attributing to the executive offices of the automakers really needs to be pointed at himself. In his rush to make himself famous and to convince his dying union that he alone knows how to fix everything, he has put the Detroit Three and the UAW on the fast track to the trash bin of history. A very sad end to the labor movement.
Not for me, allow me to show you how fuckin ignorant the utter buffoon that wrote it is -
