It's so strange how people complain about workers asking for a 40% raise but don't bat an eye when *one person* takes home $29 million dollars in *one year* (as if that single person is worth hundreds of times more than than the labor of thousands). Stand strong UAW! We support you.
Americans think they are all temporarily embarrassed millionaires. Many don't want to get rid of the abuse, because they dream of someday being the abuser.
I totally agree, but thats not the issue really at play here. The reason the deal has been so hard to come by (at least one of the major reasons) is Tesla. Tesla simply is too competitive, undercutting GM, Ford and Stellantis in prices while maintaining double their overall margins purely on EVs. Just to give you a scope of how insane that is, GM, Ford and Stellantis aren't even making money on their EVs overall, so for every extra EV they produce, they remove one of their profitable cars from the market, loosing them even more money. Thats not to say UAW workers don't deserve wage increases, as they do, but thats the situation at hand. In simpler terms, Ford, GM, and Stellantis are dying a slow and gruelling death.
Yes they are worth more. They lead multinational multibillion dollar companies, they aren’t hanging out in shorts and tank tops putting radiators into Gladiators. They have years of higher education and years of experience that make them worth 100 times more than you or me.
Corporate Greed has brought the country down starting in 2008. The CEO to worker salary rate is a damn shame. This will be a big moment in our country's history whether the working middle class will survive or disappear.
Hell yeah UAW stand up for what you deserve!! The fact that the people running Fords had the audacity to say that giving their workers a 46% pay bump would bankrupt them when their profits are PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE, a company that made over 20 billion dollars this year, a record profit, isn’t allowed to pull the whoa is me card. It would cost them less than 1/20th of those profits to give every single employee at Fords that raise… Just do the right thing Ford, please. This isn’t unreasonable at all, it’s literally just giving back what the workers gave up to save your arses during the economic downturn which was 15 YEARS AGO! Crazy.
The 11:00 p.m. shift end time must have been a across-the-board call for some plants, they let us go home at 11 also. And I work for Stellantis 2nd shift.

@JamesDeWalt909Jobs are for losers. There's no honor in employment. Don't hate the workers for trying to make the best of things. They could be arming themselves and carrying out a revolution.
Ill predict the future for everybody. They will get a pay increase and instead of the CEO's etc taking a hit they will relay the price hike to vehicle prices which are already priced out of the middle class. My 19 sierra built today has gone up 9k for exact same truck.
Polls suggest that the majority of people support Unions. I agree. But people DO NOT support unreasonable demands brought forth by workers with very limited skills who already make $33/hour.
Mexico will take those jobs for $3.00 hr and Down South pplwill gladly take 15$-17$hr so keep playing with these car companies Fain already made his money and pension also retirement and yall gonna let him PLAY GAMES with y'all future better take that 20% and be GRACIOUS
Like you said your assembly workers… you assemble…. There are thousands of small companies that actually produce the parts your screwing together…. P.s. they are NOT union companies, so you are putting together vehicles with part produced by by non union workers…. Most but not all of the worker NON SKILLED putting together parts that other people produced doesn’t mean you deserve some crazy ass contract….. pretty soon union made vehicles will cost so much that people will just go to the foreign made car because they will be cheaper… think about it… you shop at Walmart cuz it’s cheaper….. what if the Walmart employees asked for a 43% pay increase and now you have to pay 43% more for your fruit loops you would be very upset… I am not against a fair contract but this ridiculous… 32 hour work weeks and 5 week’s vacation who gets that? There is less then 1% of the people in this county that get 5 weeks of vacation and 17 days payed holidays…… As a tool and die maker for 28 year if I went to my boss and demanded what your asking they would laugh me right out of the office and I’m skilled trade….. 2 years of schooling and 4000 hours of training…. Not here’s a part put it there with this tool…. Like I said most not all of you…. Good luck with your strike I hope you get a fair contract…. Think about your friends and neighbors and what they make and then think about what you’re asking for….. most would be shocked
As a Chrysler technician at a dealership I can tell you if they get what they want they are digging there own grave. Why should should someone with no skills make more money than someone like me, the guy that fixes all their screw ups. And believe me I see their incomintence everyday!
Union 182, worked at Michigan Assembly for 25years before transferring to Livonia transmission. I fully support my brothers and sisters, but I wish my man would have asked why we are having to fight for our original cola formula back that was given up on good faith why Jim are you trying to monkey with the formula? Why can’t they give a little to the retireees! As for the pension I’m torn, the new workers receive a 401k and Ford sets that up for them when they hire in and matches what they contribute. But they should receive a pension as well i mean damn these are Career jobs and career jobs come with pensions! People don’t realize either that the concessions we made in 2015 have effected us every single day since as we sink further and further back! It’s time to give back to the employees big three!
This advice is mostly for YOUNG people in their 20s. Obtain job SKILLS such that you are VALUABLE in the market place. Yes. This can be hard to do when you are working 40 hours a week in an auto factory. Take some night classes at a community college. Consider getting into the trades, etc. ALSO, Learn how to handle your money. SAVE your money and when you have enough money for a down payment then BUY a home and DON'T rent. When you are 65 then it is much better to have a PAID OFF HOUSE versus renting. Stay away from drugs and alcohol. IF you are a parent with kids still in grade and high school then do whatever it takes to instill personal responsibility to acquire job skills. You want your kids to have a better life than you have.
Personal responsibility is decent advice, but remember, there's always an underclass in capitalism. The poor make the system work. The poor are necessary and efforts to expand the lower classes will always be made. If everyone was perfectly responsible and highly educated the value of those traits falls to zero. You can be forced into the underclass regardless of your efforts.
It hardly feels historic. Dearborn truck plant is ford's most profitable plant and UAW workers are still working without a contract at this very moment, allowing ford to continue to make profits.
So maybe the company should shut down, tell all the UAW workers they're on the street because they won't accept a 20% raise, return of COLA, & the best health care package in the US. Drain the $845M strike fund war chest in 11 weeks with the measly $500/wk, and then let everyone think about that generous 20% offer & how everything can be shipped to Mexico like Mercedes did. If my Boss offered me a 20% raise I'd be dancing in the streets. Geez, wake up folks.
These motor companies care more about GREED then to pay their workers a decent salary give them the raises they deserve they are the ones that are doing the hard labor , the CEO'S collecting millions of dollars a year off of their backs what a shame shame on them nothing but GREED.
Appreciate what? How these cry babies that have zero actual skill are crying about them not being as successful as they want to be? They should have went to college like the bosses did.
Nothing to do with how I think or feel. It's how capitalism works for better or worse. If labor costs begin to outpace profit margins, companies will explore other options.@@Paceables
@@taylor_straub Tell that to the CEO’s of the UAW who made millions of dollars off the backs of the workers. One of them made over $200 million in 3 years…while the workers pay was lowered. They received 40% pay increases or bonuses, why not for the workers? Do you think, they have the economy in mind ?
Its crazy that Body is not on strike in that plant. He sounds confused which is crazy to think about coming from the same plant. Hopefully it all works out.
@noboy345 I'm guessing they'd just fill their bank to paint and sit until told to join the picket line. I don't understand the move but I'm not in the war room, so in Fain I trust.
If you're confused, think of what Ford is feeling, lol. The goal is to apply maximum pressure without emptying the strike fund. The corporations could easily endure 11 weeks of a universal strike. Once the money is gone the workers would be forced back to work and the corporations could move to decertify the Union contract. Moving forward, if the factories can't operate they'll have to lay off the rest of the workers and they can apply for UI, which is funded through the corporation.
It's 36% over 3 years so 12% a year for people who make $15 an hour so an extra $5-6 an hour after a few years is what they're asking for and they don't even want it all up front just spread out over 3 years so $1.50-$2 extra a year. These people use to make $28 prior to the companies having to be bailed out with taxpayer dollars so now the companies are doing well it should get pay increase.
Voluntarily donate 40-50% of your check. Be the leader instead of a follower, if you truly believe that and not just virtue signaling with meaningless words. Id be more interested in getting a job that doesn't require me to pay someone else for having a job and keeping what I earn.
All Stores Please Lower the price of all Military and Local for all Brands of Local UAW Strike Products and Accessories and Production Cost Now That's too much $$ The Whole World Now 🙏🙏🙏
You know automobiles will cost more now right 40% raise I'm sorry but that's absurd it's not like these guys make minimum wage they make decent money I Used to Know guys that worked at Ford and they had all the toys they had cottages and a lot of addiction issues the old saying goes the more money you make the more money you spend
Uneducated manual labor should not be paid $40+ per hour. I got a computer science degree while working full time so I could become a software developer, and now I don't make very much more than that. These people are absolutely out of their minds.
This will put the US auto makers out of business. They will need to increase the cost of a car by over 50% to support the latest union demands. This is the nail in the coffin for US auto makers.
Wow Ford you are sooo lucky these guys are going on strike. The reality in 2023 is normally if someone isnt happy with their pay they just leave. Maybe they'll do you the courtesy of calling to say they quit but usually they just ghost you. Going on strike means they still want the job and are willing to talk.
open the borders on the south side yo. They'll work for it. I remember delivering auto parts to the Detroit Ford plant when i was a delivery van driver. No one wanted to come out and unload the car parts out of the van to keep the assembly line running because they were on their "break". Maybe one day there won't be humans working in auto factories...................just machines that run off of electricity, hydraulics, and pneumatics. But seriously......................i'm positive that those "illegal immigrants" would be the last people to go on strike...........they are what actually keeps inflation from running amock.
Learn something from Huawei. The funder of Huawei Renzhenfei only holds 0.75% of Huawei stocks and rest of 99.25% all goes to the employees. This is why Huawei employees are so innovated, empowered, hard working and united firmly under the US sanction. Because all the employees are coloctively the majority stock holders.
New offer? THE Union will be given moneys that equate to a 40% overall wage increase to all workers and they (union leaders) can do with it as they wish. Now lets see how fair the leaders will be to their members.
Not one ounce of me supports these people. Not one. They are horrendously overpaid now. If anything their pay should be cut. I am a union Member but I do not blindly have loyalty to every union when I think they are wrong. I refuse to buy a ford, gm or dodge product for this very reason and never will. I hope the companies stand their ground.
…and then they are only striking at a few plants so it will eventually shut down other plants and the supplier base so these fools can collect on the taxpayer by collecting unemployment. That’s dirty!
Union slackers wanting a 40% raise, let them strike. Buy VW, Nissan, Honda and Toyota. Plenty of non-union illegal immigrants who would thankfully take those jobs.
I would close the factory and let 3rd parties build it. Start cutting employees if this is what the unions are gonna do. They are unreasonable demands.

Not yet, certainly
This will put the US auto makers out of business. They will need to increase the cost of a car by over 50% to support the latest union demands. This is the nail in the coffin for US auto makers.
The ones who weren't picked for strike doesn't get crap
that's because we're working. what are u talking about?
Wuh? It's the strikers that are taking one for the team.
Wow Ford you are sooo lucky these guys are going on strike.
The reality in 2023 is normally if someone isnt happy with their pay they just leave. Maybe they'll do you the courtesy of calling to say they quit but usually they just ghost you. Going on strike means they still want the job and are willing to talk.
I remember my first strike. BBQ`s and Frisbee throwing. Fun times.
I plant per company not a very strong move!!!!
We stand with uaw as a fellow Michigander
Yeah, I don’t think so. They’d make more money not paying into a union….a union is a profitable industry in its self…greedy!
@@CarriUSA that’s not true your just ignorant.
Get back to work
open the borders on the south side yo. They'll work for it. I remember delivering auto parts to the Detroit Ford plant when i was a delivery van driver. No one wanted to come out and unload the car parts out of the van to keep the assembly line running because they were on their "break". Maybe one day there won't be humans working in auto factories...................just machines that run off of electricity, hydraulics, and pneumatics. But seriously......................i'm positive that those "illegal immigrants" would be the last people to go on strike...........they are what actually keeps inflation from running amock.
Learn something from Huawei. The funder of Huawei Renzhenfei only holds 0.75% of Huawei stocks and rest of 99.25% all goes to the employees. This is why Huawei employees are so innovated, empowered, hard working and united firmly under the US sanction. Because all the employees are coloctively the majority stock holders.
Yea !! Lets give the workers their pay increase so that the only people that can afford a new vehicle are the people that work in the auto industry
This is why the average new car costs $50,000 now...😂
Yes let's pay someone $50/hr to turn a screwdriver then complain about the $60,000 Jeep Wrangler!
Of course, their union president told them!! She would ask a question like that. Lol 😂 JK
Workers need to know their place……
Children are for owners
Both sides don't get it. Workers will go broke before the companies really care.
Workers need a class in business 101.
New offer? THE Union will be given moneys that equate to a 40% overall wage increase to all workers and they (union leaders) can do with it as they wish. Now lets see how fair the leaders will be to their members.
what about people who make jets...they can't afford the jets they make. should everyone who produces a product be able to afford that product?
Turning down a 20% raise is definitely historic... ly bad
Just so you know these workers are not escaping to get into my line of work.
God Bless the UAW!!! I stand with the workers
Not one ounce of me supports these people. Not one. They are horrendously overpaid now. If anything their pay should be cut. I am a union Member but I do not blindly have loyalty to every union when I think they are wrong. I refuse to buy a ford, gm or dodge product for this very reason and never will. I hope the companies stand their ground.
…and then they are only striking at a few plants so it will eventually shut down other plants and the supplier base so these fools can collect on the taxpayer by collecting unemployment. That’s dirty!
This is why manufacturing jobs are moving to Mexico...🤷♂🇺🇸
Union slackers wanting a 40% raise, let them strike. Buy VW, Nissan, Honda and Toyota. Plenty of non-union illegal immigrants who would thankfully take those jobs.
Go get ‘em guys! As a federal employee I proudly stand with you! Keep fighting for the little guy!
Whiney babies. They want a 40 percent pay increase and a 32 hour work week. Babies.
How hard would it be to train the thousands of undocumented immigrants pouring across the US southern boarder to do these jobs?
I would close the factory and let 3rd parties build it. Start cutting employees if this is what the unions are gonna do. They are unreasonable demands.
