Like everytime you see people outraged on union negotiations, here is what they are actually asking for:

The UAW is asking automakers for a 36% pay increase across a four-year contract

And

Along with substantial pay raises, more paid time off and pension benefits, one of the changes UAW leaders have been bargaining for is a four-day workweek, working 32 hours for 40 hours of pay, and more time off "to spend with family," according to the UAW site.

Full support to UAW.

I grow tired. This was debunked by Ricardo in 1817 and again by Marx in 1865. How wonderful it is to live in a world where everyone believes the economic equivalent of miasma theory.

If UAW get it, there’s a solid chance we all can.

Folks are upset at people possibly being treated better than they are after decades of stagnation and hard labor.

Yo, maybe the rest of us also need to unionize!

Ofc musk wants that to not happen. Idk who the other guy is but with a blue check… probably an asshole.

Hire the illegals

Way to call for worker abuse while outright hating the abused workers

STOP USING TWITTER

But seriously, abandon that ship.

What gets forgotten time and again is that the working class is paid so little to start with that labor costs don't often factor into prices much at all. It's far outstripped in cost of materials, electricity, transport etc

fun fact about xitter
their links still resolve to twitter urls for me
even if it's posted as www.x.com/blah

Ah, yes, wage inflation. When wages have been stagnant or even negative after adjusting for inflation for 40 years, when wages haven't grown basically at all with respect to GDP for 40 years, yes, wage inflation. I like how it's inflation due to supply chain disruption until people want a cost of living increase.

Just wait until I unionize the undocumented people >:)

Amazed that any of you were able to last years on that site. I lasted two days in 2014 and never looked back.

isn't/wasn't ZeroHedge some publication? why does a publication have the fight club guy as a pfp??

Not that this would actually cause the big three to go bankrupt, but shouldn’t musk want them to? They’re his direct competitors. The man is so very stupid

: "You're not entitled to anything, no one should get anything for free!"

Also : "GIVE PORKY FREE LABOR NOW! WORKERS DESERVE NO RIGHTS! JUST WORK UNTIL YOU STARVE TO DEATH OR ELSE I'LL THINK YOU'RE A WIMP!"

Sheeple's gonna sheep.
