@scoobiedoo2517 the entire semiconductor industry is spending tens of billions to move manufacturing back to the US, away from Taiwan, because there are more reasons than just wages to have jobs in one place or another. having major industries dependent on other countries can have national security implications.
No problem, Ford will just add these costs to the price of their cars. Victory for the union and Ford at the expense of the regular consumer. I think Ford forgot what made them successful. Build an affordable car that the everyday person could buy. People do not want $80,000+ F-150's
In a few years Ford and GM will go bankrupt and have to be bailed out by the US tax payer. The America tax payer should not be on the hook to pay for bloated union salaries. Enough already.
$20/hr is nothing for anyone. If minimum wage had kept up with inflation from when it was passed in 1968, it would be sitting around 25 bucks an hour. We've been negged and gaslit into expecting less as working people, all of us.

You don't understand how numbers work for regular people, and the people at the top. Re-assess once you understand the scale of what 40% means at the hourly wage compared to the corporate CEO. Then you will understand it's just.
Let’s be honest since the company is trying to scrounge your wages to fill their pockets. They try to reduce quality but keep the same price to make another buck.

I don't want robots to take anyone's job, I am a union guy, I want all workers to make a living wage, get inflation raises every year, have a retirement, get paid sick time off, paid vacation, and have a high top pay, and safer working conditions, but I am just stating what will happen.
Do ceo cfo etc... do anything
Your replacements are on the way are already here soon as they get the work permits and ss numbers .
Not without a social security number and a background check buddy. Roofing and drywall thats about it
@@bidenkidsniffer4926unless biden signs an executive order.
Yeah he’s right but let’s admit it. It does hurt people wages unfortunately.
🤡🤡
We dont need faith we need action!!!!
Don't see a 36% raise or 4 day work week there
I know, they are still stuck at 20% and he is saying that is good. I think we should get 30% and take the offer.
I dont mind 4 days, 10 hours. Definitely 32% works for me.
@@salemdesigns65 I’ll take 5 days a week with 10 weeks of vacation a year.
Now if they can just stop their cars from hitting people at cars and coffee
Or the random people that think it’s the car itself lol.
@@Hydi_ Ford could write in a "no douchebag" sales policy but refuse to do so. It's a national health hazard
Sounds like the big 3 are going price themselves right of the market ? Money doesn’t grow on trees and tesla is reducing prices
Yeah but they don’t make pick up trucks that the big 3 do. Even the cyber truck won’t be a real competitor, the lightning proves that alone.
Because no one wants trash ass ev's it's just a political pawn for this trash ass president. As soon as we all realize that it's a fair market and if you want ICE vehicles you should be able to purchase that and if you want EV's you should be able to purchase that as well. But the forced market that this bullshit Biden administration is pushing will never work. Tesla is going to tank soon because our grids just aren't ready for all EV's 🤷
Tesla reducing prices to you means your already well off. They can’t sell in general market.
What about the retirees? What about our raises. What about the tiers at all plants?
Ford leading the way. Win win for both sides.
Give them $100.00 an hour, I can’t afford the junk products they build now
Why 100 dollars an hour. Mine as well make it 120 dollars per hour.
They will still build junk, the door and hood gaps aren't straight and the metal body panels are wavy. The cars of the 60s and 70s had thicker metal and heavy chrome and not plastic and the average guy could fix it.The new junk of today is made cheap an has to many sensors and problems to go wrong.
You can’t hire someone for 15$ in American 😅😅
If they only do $15 worth of work....
Ford and UAW will agree mid next week
Not unless they lose all tiers and at least a 30% raise
@@bidenkidsniffer4926 I agree 10000000000%
Yes they will retool and move their production to Mexico and China and Canada.
Wendy’s is hiring.
Meanwhile….
Ford dealers are full of inventory
no progress has been made
It's a wrap.
I’m right in the middle of it. We ask for income security for 4 years and then they came back at too. We would give in at 3 from what I’m told.
Lots of jobs heading to Mexico in the future.
They got unions there too, chief, and they're on UAWs side.
@@agluebottle Yep, and I'm sure they are saying. " We are with you UAW Gringos. Keep your jobs in America, we don't want them."
@@scoobiedoo2517we don't need a race to the bottom on wages. there are reasons more than wages to be in one place or another.
@@Ryan-093 I'm all for them to get as much as they can. Reality is in the future jobs will go to Mexico.
@scoobiedoo2517 the entire semiconductor industry is spending tens of billions to move manufacturing back to the US, away from Taiwan, because there are more reasons than just wages to have jobs in one place or another. having major industries dependent on other countries can have national security implications.
Hurry up
Taxpayers will end up paying - As always ? Inflation Monster Grows ! 🤔
Hold up I thought they was at least getting $20 an hour. Thats crazy 😢
No, we is getting 40 dollars an hour.
The $20 per hour would be the new starting wage. We won't know of other terms until we vote.
@@salemdesigns65losers, you're only doing $20 worth of work but want more money? Pathetic
No problem, Ford will just add these costs to the price of their cars. Victory for the union and Ford at the expense of the regular consumer. I think Ford forgot what made them successful. Build an affordable car that the everyday person could buy. People do not want $80,000+ F-150's
UAW Ford workers pay increased 6% over the last contract. Ford vehicles prices increased 34%. 🤔
Buy a 2023 Dodge Hornet. It's a nice lil' every day vehicle.
The Union will raise Dues by 40 dollars a week so Fain and his buddies get a raise.
i dont support the union it seems that all of the non union companies produce far better vehicles at lower cost toyota for one honda. tesla
Show me a Toyota vehicle that anyone wants that’s cheaper than a UAW vehicle
In a few years Ford and GM will go bankrupt and have to be bailed out by the US tax payer. The America tax payer should not be on the hook to pay for bloated union salaries. Enough already.
Sir i say you must love to work for peanuts and live in a peasant house while the ceo could careless if your raise a family 👏
18.00 hour starting pay is not peasant wages
@@victorwanstreet3038 you can make that at Target. Tonight im going to make sure your mother is fully satisfied
$20 an hour is nothing for a factory worker. Factory workers should at least be making $30 an hour from day one the opportunity to make $75 an hour
$20/hr is nothing for anyone. If minimum wage had kept up with inflation from when it was passed in 1968, it would be sitting around 25 bucks an hour. We've been negged and gaslit into expecting less as working people, all of us.
Well said mate i make at least 40 dollars australian in a milk factory and double that for overtime and work 4 days on 4 days of stick your guns comrades and dream big solidarity from down under cheers.
@@weirdo108340 dollars in Australia is 25.77 in American dollars.
Clearly you're mentally ill
That's crazy especially when most of these workers don't even have a college degree. Wishful thinking there are plenty and I mean plenty of immigrants looking for work and don't need a Union or Union Dues and would be glad to have these jobs. You know Biden said immigrants would do the jobs American s didn't want to do.
Stellantis will end up with a better deal. Less members and more money. Jeep and ram are killing it
Yes lay them all off and retool and move to Mexico.
@@jessyhavron2548 you sound jealous, I bet you chose a shitty job and hate your life
cmon ford . hold out and bust the union!!!!!! they are outdated!!!!
Actually we are very youthful, ass wipe stop hatin you don't Like it buy something else an move somewhere else. Big hater for no reason at all
Name one first world country without unions.
Tonight I will make your mother a very satisfied woman
@@balor7”cmon ford! Shrink the middle class some more!!” Is what you’re saying
@@michaelgerik8730 how so?
ai automation baby
Ppl who do the job and make the company money should be taken care of
In general Unions making 40$ 50$ 60$ 70$ per hour demanding more outrageous paychecks driving food more and more expensive.
🤔 what? 😂 ok. It's unions doing that but not corporate greed!? 🤔🤔🤔 come on 🤦
No UAW autoworker is making over 40.
That too... I'm a UAW worker and I don't come close to those numbers so I'm not sure where these opinionated ppl are getting their so called facts but WOW 🤣 just wow! 🤦🤦🤦 the amount of disinformation spread by ppl that aren't auto workers is mind blowing 🤦 ugh
@@Dieharddookieyour friends disagree, according to them, they are paying 40%~50% taxes. So tell me, are they lying about their taxes for sympathy or are you lying about your income for sympathy?
The food went up way before the UAW’s demands. The UAW is now just trying to be able to buy the expensive food and be able to feed their family.
I'd like to see the UAW work with GM to come to some deal that is fair and reasonable for everyone.
But a 40% increase in pay for the UAW is unacceptable.
Well battery boi it’s really between the union and the company isn’t it.
SO why do you accept the 40% wage increase that the CEOs gave themselves?
40 percent over 4 years get your facts straight
40% over 4 years
You don't understand how numbers work for regular people, and the people at the top.
Re-assess once you understand the scale of what 40% means at the hourly wage compared to the corporate CEO.
Then you will understand it's just.
Do not buy a Ford truck I know how they're made.
I make them and have never been more proud to make something. I'm 4th generation Ford worker too so maybe you're just a hater 😂
Let’s be honest since the company is trying to scrounge your wages to fill their pockets. They try to reduce quality but keep the same price to make another buck.
Work to do you aw is only good for assembly plants don't join UAW if your parts supplier then fight for us at all they need open our contract we only got a 4% raise
Fire all of them!
Hire who? Are you causing division from with in? ((You will reap what you sow!)) Your hate for this Country shows.
