UAW rejects 21% pay increase.

Shouldn't you be working and contributing to society?
Fire them for 5% a year? You shitting me?Fire them all and start rehiring.
That’s true but still doesn’t cover all the millionaire posters on here 😉
Perhaps so, Goldie. But the UAW does not represent the teachers. What group of employees with any leverage at all would willingly accept a 5% annual raise for the next four years in this inflationairy enviroment?
I'm always skeptical when they say inlcuding benefits. The average UAW worker (according to CBS) makes about $28/hour. I'd be curious to what benefits they are including and how they arrived at those numbers.
The Radical Right has been brainwashed into believing anyone associated with a union is greedy.
Union workers spend their wages on Merica's main street businesses.
Is that bad?
Another reason the GOP targets low intelligence voters.

So you seem like the kind of guy that loves the CEO getting paid 40 million a year but these guys haven't had an increase in 4-5 years and inflation has gone through the roof. Seems fair enough. It's insane the pay of the CEO is ok or we just gloss over it while we go crazy when the guys building the cars and doing the actual work are just trying to stay up w/inflation.
With the current “multi-tiered” salary structure, that $28/hour could well be in play....the UAW wants to end the current “tier” system of salaries and go to one “master” salary schedule. I am sure this is a bigger sticking point between workers and management than gross wages.
Good for the workers if they can get it, but companies like their profits and are
Only if the market allows them to raise their prices. There is a lot of competition. The issue at hand is because the market allowed them to raise prices and make HUGE profits but would not share those equitably with their employees.
Just that every bill Reagan signed into law was passed in the Democrat controlled house.
They weren’t small Dem majorities either.
50 seats 1981-83
103 seats 83-85
72 85-87
81 87-89
Every bill he ever signed was bipartisan.
Times have changed binsfield. Tip had control of his Party in the House and he and Reagan understood each other and worked together as much as possible. Congress changed once Newt took over the House. Newt brought a lot of genuine hate to the House.
It would help the UAW if the Department of Labor would put out accurate inflation numbers. There is no way inflation is as low as they claim. They need to get out in the real world.
So? Workers should expect to make less from here on out while the top brass rakes it in? No thanks
I agree with this 100%.
If you believe this…why do you continue to blame Reagan for todays problems?
Ok....and? Democrats shoot themselves in the foot. What does that have to do with the actual functionality of Reaganomics?
So you're trying to say the Democrats are really to blame because they didn't do enough to block Reagan policies?
SMFH
LOL. You really are the worst HR supervisor ever. You're completely clueless.
JFC - whose policy was "trickle down economics"?
It's insane to try to blame Democrats for Regan's policies. But then again, you are a right winger.
Because Reagan’s policies were flawed…look and see what happened to “middle class” America since “the Reagan Revolution”… it has lost purchasing power and numbers…middle class jobs have gone South and it’s been a struggle for middle class….. Granted it not all Reagan… Clinton should have done more to punish corporations for taking their act to Mexico…in actuality, probably Clinton’s major error as POTUS..(passing NAFTA and injuring the worker by not taxing American corps. for moving to Mexico)…Reagan’s years were gold mines for corporations and Wall Street…trickle down did more to creating income and wealth disparity in the US than anything in the countruy’s history.
This is such a fvcked up narrative. I started working during the Reagan years. I have been wildly successful despite many career fvck-ups over the past 30-something years.
People who just want to stay in the same job for 30 years get what they deserve.
Because he played a major part in it. Duh. He started the attack on the middle class. It began with his policies.
Democrats in the 80s didn't believe in gay marriage, bought into the war on drugs, called black people super predators (and yes that was you Hillary), and supported a lot of Reagan's trickle down bullshit.
Difference is the Dems grew up and realized all these beliefs were crap. The Rs, however, still buy into all the Reagan horsehit.

I think the popularity of Regan really forced the hand of a lot of congress folks in the 80’s. They were coming off some bad stuff in the 70’s and followed the will of the people and the popular Reagan’s policies. Ultimately I feel those policies were short term wins with long term failures. Now congress folks stick to their guns too much and can’t find common ground anywhere so I don’t know that either situation is/was good for America.
This is some stupid shit even for you. Your logic is because the "trickle down" worked for you it hasn't resulted in many of the issues we're seeing today.
You are one dumb mother****er.
Are you really going into the microcosms of 1980s politics? JFC dude. You have lost it.
Perfect time for them to strike since the UAW has corrupt union Joe in their pockets.
All the union boss has to is complain Biden isn’t doing anything and force Joe to bludgeon the car companies into submission. In return the UAW will funnel money into the Biden re-election campaign.

Really because the rail worker strike ended because he stopped supporting it and forced an agreement with the help of congress.
Completely different section of the National Labor Relations Act.
The UAW and the Teamsters don't have such restrictions.
