These unions chased all our jobs off to places like China. If you want to support Americans recognize these Unions are domestic enemies.

you sound TUFF now but I promise you.... B4 any company bring back pensions..... THEY WILL MOVE TO MEXICO! then what you gone say? WE WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS! he should not have went on strike yet cause the company was BENDING!

Well if they move to Mexico then the UAW members should not buy any vehicle they make over there. They going to pass the cost on to the customer because they have to ship them back. If sales drop trust and believe they'll bring them back quickly.

@@biggdogg2051 sound SCABBISH my boi!🤣🤣🤣💯

@@valrobinson7644 sound like u don’t read your contract and must be top tier. Each contract thousands of workers get left behind because of the language in the agreements. Any union brothers and sisters left out of the contract should have an issue

Everyone walking out at the same time will deplete the strike fund quickly! You'll be out on strike with NO MONEY come Christmas Thanksgiving & new year cause the companies have 3 months of cars stacked up. We were making progress! He shouldn't have walked out! he's trying to prove he's tuff! in a few months if this continues...... YOU'LL BE SORRY! always remember.... Fein checks don't stop.... YOURS DO!

if he's a Democrat, he is NOT a Christian.

24 years of service for me and where has this man been? Thank God for you Shawn!!!!

What are you complaining about?? You got a free ride

Minorities dont wanna feed boomer white people retirees?

​@@gregorylyon1004what free ride?

Exactly!!

that should fix the corporate greed problem

…..Me too. I want 40 Hours of pay for 32 hours of work.

​@@stephenfiore9960 I wonder how that would affect everyone else. I work for a company that builds parts and sequences parts. Now my company, I believe would not change our hours but also our hours mirrors GM. As for our wages.... well they did go up because getting new hires TO STAY was critical. It's like a revolving door there. Still is...the hours thing is excessive but wages....I do agree with because it also sets a presence. My company is one of the highest money maker, yet we are the least paid out of all of our locations. Hence why that location keeps the bills rolling in. Sigh.... whatever happens I just hope for the best.

get f^cked commie. ford and gm wont last another 10 years, you guys are killing your own employer

I feel u brother the same with us American Axel 1995-2009 and the UAW left us for dead

It’s a strategy so we don’t use all our strike fund up quickly. This is the smartest strategy to hit the most profitable plants first.

@@austinkowalski5512 so u mean to tell me we’ve been paying union dues all this time and now we’re scared to use the funds. Sound like it’s time for the new hires, lower tier, younger workers to lead this fight for what we deserve. I came to fight not roll over for some punk ass 500$ UAW lookin real soft right now. I’m ready to walk from the lowest Tier to the Top Tier. CCA,Mopar GMCH. I’m ready💯

Exactly... blow thru $825M in this strike and we have a huge vulnerability when the next contract comes up. Fain is taking the correct approach IMO.

🦋I agree with you both and I'm ready for whatever🦋

​@austinkowalski5512 the only problem I see with that is when the plants that run out of parts the workers can't strike they have to collect unemployment and if you live in Indiana and work at Fort Wayne Assembly they put out a letter saying if they get laid off they won't be able to collect unemployment as well so that's really gonna hurt alotta people that don't have a savings and have alot of bills or need to take care of there kids. So I don't think it's a good idea we all need to strike together.

UFCW Local 7.Union Strong.

Education Workers can't Strike either. I'm pulling and rooting for them!

HELLO!

Patriots? These unions chased all our jobs offshore to places like China who are at war with us. These people are domestic enemies.

Not patriots..Communists. There is a reason NO ONE BUYS CAR from SOcialist nations. Mediocre products

The UAW will throw the parts plants under the bus as usual. As we get closer to the deadline you’ll start hearing words like”manufacturing” and “line workers” basically meaning not all workers 🤦‍♂️ They let their parts plants brothers and sisters down everytime

Not as many as you might think.

​@@hoapres What is your source to substantiate your assertion?

Go UAW,Union Strong UFCW Local 7

@@aaronrivers64the same question can be asked of you. I personally do not know anyone supporting the UAW. Would like to see some real facts on this.

​@@hoapresOp 34 likes, you got 4 I think the ratio speaks for itself.😅

I won’t be proud unless he does something for CCA, Mopar and GMCH. We pay union dues just like everyone else and deserve a fair wage. I can’t respect the UAW for leaving brothers and sisters in the cold

Fear kills most people's dreams.

You're right. Most don't have nearly as good as these auto workers. And can't afford the absolute garbage products they produce.

He just wants a free ride for his members

​@@johnrogers2826 then apply if you think we have it so good. Instead of b*tching, do something about it

THere is a reason communist nations produce mediocrity

How about NO ONE WANTS ELECTIC CARS. These disgusting Union are why we are paying so much for so little in cars. Shame

I'm sorry. Since when do employees at companies that make products that no one wants deserve a pay raise, "fair" or other wise? This strike is about greed: The UAW thinks the billions Biden raided from the U.S. Treasury and taxpayers and handed to the automakers is theirs, too.

Principals at school too when the last time they taught something.

He'd have my vote hands down

I'll never vote Democrat. EVER. They are aligned with Satan.

He just might

I do believe it was more than just retirement funds that was gutted. Didn't many employees get layed-off while also having thier current employees gets their wages cut to two-teir wages and newer employees even less so? Not only that but the fall of health insurance also occured. And even then, your argument states, "While the companies themselves experienced great profits in return for the union's sacrifices, they also benefitted themselves by recieving future returns promised such as pensions and VEBA." However, after 2012, which should of been when their pay-cut ended, it did not return. Not only that, but Detroit failed to meet pension plans by 2013. So while I do believe other unions should also be recognized and paid more, its seems unfair to describe or imply the UAW as "spoiled" because, from what it seems, they are owed quite a lot for assisting in Frankensteining the Big Three. Their return to COLA and a pay increase matching what Ford's CEO pay increase was doesn't seem so unfair now that they are out of bankruptcy for 10 long years.

I guess they should just lie down. People need to be angry at the company. *not* the union protecting their members and their families. Laws must be changed so other unions and the public aren’t left by holding the bag.

Amen...here's looking at you USW

You got your free ride. So what are you complaining about??? These workers don't even get pensions

@@gregorylyon1004 Sounding a little envious there buddy. I didn't know UAW workers had no pensions. I happen to know Ford workers how do have a pension and are still on that pension? I guess you wish those Ford workers didn't have those pensions.

@@twoweeledsoto6072 Well I don't really believe that anyone who has a pension that the pension should pay a spouse as well. I don't think that it's an employers responsibility to pay someone who never stepped foot in the facility. That's a shit deal for employers.

@@twoweeledsoto6072 And from what I understand is that from 2008 forward, the new hires don't get offered a pension. They get a 401 instead

@@gregorylyon1004 that's where companies are going now. 401k plus matching some of contributions. 6% match I think.

B WHA HA, Bring jobs back to america for people who just crossed into OUR nation from mexico. Yeh, Like a Rock

@@deepakfineberg Na, send them back. Close the borders. We don't need them here. They can make their own homelands better instead of sapping ours. "Economic migrants" are fancy words for low intelligence, low impulse control, cheap labor for (((globalist))) multinationals.

Everyone. Teachers Included

Yep...shut the whole country down on workers terms!

DEMOCRATS made the standards. THEY ARE GETTING WHAT THEY DESERVE. ALLY with the devil, you get chancers

You think it does, but it doesn't...plenty have tried automating production, but they found you just can't replace a hard working human being...ask Elon how it went for him when he tried.

@@jrawk4140 I wasn't referring to automations, it requires only 50% less parts....just less to assemble. Please look into more studies. If not, great I'm rooting for you guys , Im just concern , thank you

I work in marion indiana stamping, we are targeted, we will shut down ft. Wayne. ft Wayne is their money maker

Greed goes both ways. Unions are greedy too. They chased all the jobs off to places like China..

if u don't work for big 3, bye bye, ur opinion doesn't matter.

The average workforce doesn't deal with the laborious, physically demanding work Auto workers deal with either. Some ppl get hired and quit the same day because their bodies can't take the work.

Wage increases have went up 17% in America the last 4 years which is why fast food hires at 15 dollars an hour. Autoworkers have taken it on the chin without traditional COLA.

I hope the smaller companies will get taken in and helped too. Solidarity.
