Will UAW, Big 3 reach compromise before strike deadline?

With two days left before UAW members will strike, the Big Three and the union continue negotiating in hopes of reaching a deal and avoiding the picket line. So far, the automakers' offers have fallen short. Will they reach an agreement before the deadline?

The companies have stated the # of jobs (or engineering hours) required to produce EV's will be less #1. That inherently should REDUCE the cost of the car. #2 the Electric Drive Motors used in EVs (replacing engines and transmissions) are a "purchased" item (Not built by a UAW worker). The cost of vehicles are up 30% in the past 4 years due to companies gouging consumers. Workers wages have only increased approx. 6% (1.5% per yr. ) Remember: theres ALWAYS 2 sides to every story.

This contract is very important to several cities. Unions are the answer to Democrats and Republicans complaints about the 1% keeping all the money. The hardest thing going into negotiations for the workers is that we dont own any good politicians. We have the money, but corruption has given to criminals instead of buying the right politicians. Now the workers are behind the corporate side on lobbying, i mean purchasing a good politician.

This will affect every worker across the board whether you realize it or not. These Republican trickle-down economic policies do not work. Nor do 'Right-to-work policies that strip folks of their freedom to organize and utilize collective bargaining agreements. When the CEO and board brags about record profits quarterly and annually. Those workers at the bottom deserve compensation, too. Workers don't live to work, they work to make a living. This is the 1% vs. the 99%! As a union member, I stand with the UAW, and even if I wasn't, I'd still stand up. The numbers are on our side, and it's time to fight for what we're owed......

In a whole quarter of sales, GM usually only posts a 2 - 3 billion in profit. There is NO way they lose 5 billion in 10 days. Sorry, that's just a flat out lie. If it were true, think about it logically. It would be stupid on GM's part to resist the contract. Why throw away billions for no reason. If GM gave the workers what they wanted, it wouldn't amount to half of that 5 billion loss, the workers would be happy, strike would be avoided, and vehicles would continue to drive out of the plants. So why in the world NOT invest that into you work force. Why be stubborn about it and lose it. Give the UAW what theyve EARNED over the last 4 contracts where they've taken loses and concessions to help make the big three profitable (quarter of a trillion dollars in profit) and make them whole again. Or, are the big three just spouting out BS. I think we all know the answer.
