UAW On Strike

[sadclownwp]

Seems to me most of the ones here that are upset with the UAW arn't or have never been UAW.

I mean most of the people here are not socialists/communists. Most of the people here also denounce and call for the stepping down or removal of socialists/communists. So in this case, Creedmoor's statement fact checks true. Excellent job.

 

[d.kaufman]

Correct. We're just getting the effects of the UAWs' leadership poor decisions, as in the case of the semi owner above.

Think that guy is a fan of unions right now?

This ^^^^^

I have 2 vehicles that have been waiting on parts for a month. I've also had to refuse work because of parts availability.

My parts supplier can't restock oem parts so it's only gonna get worse as their supply gets emptied

In the court of public opinion and future customer loyalty, the UAW is just digging their graves deeper and deeper.

Fein put on a big show ramping up to the strikes. If he car companies have given their best offers at this point, I wonder how much longer Fein has to keep the show going before he can declare victory?

What if it is not about victory? What if he is doing what any good socialist/communist would be doing by trying to make it so his people are more dependent on the government for their daily bread?

Heh… what’s that saying? Don’t attribute to malice that can easily be explained by incompetence? (Something like that).

When socialists espouse socialist stuff, they generally mean for it to punish who they consider the oppressors while the oppressed reap the rewards. I don’t think Fein envisions a future where the machine operator has to wait in line for his government cheese. He thinks he can bring the rich to their knees by forcing them to redistribute their wealth.

At this point, I'm hoping the car companies start to reduce their offers. That WILL send a strong message that they've put forth their best, and call the UAWs bluff.

Don't you worry, I was told earlier in this very thread that parts just spring out of holes in the ground.

Seems to me that most of the ones complaining about people voicing skepticism of the UAW aren’t or have never been UAW.

See? That’s not any more relevant than you complaining about union skeptics not being members themselves.

Not being a member of the thing one is criticizing does not invalidate critical opinions. If anything, being a member would tend to bias opinions in favor of it. A UAW member is much less likely to acknowledge even the most legitimate criticisms because of that bias.

Are the seed expensive? Can you plant them in fall? Thinking about maybe growing a winter crop.

About a $1.88 each, but the produce is top shelf (if you can get at it.)

I'd bet on soon.

Even Fain has to know that every time he opens his mouth, he is losing favor with the American public.

He needs to hurry up and take the W, while he can still blame all the negative repercussions on the big three vs his own foolish self motivations.

With this win, Fain can still be a Joe Biden sort of hero, claiming victory that may or may not really be there. With a lot of plausible deniability for running half the American public away from buying American cars?

And the cool thing is with crop rotation you can put in a crop of cows next year…

 

[printcraft]

Agreed

Does that surprise you? Does it matter?

US auto workers' union boss says strikes will continue in bid for better offers from companies

United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said Friday that while Detroit’s automakers have increased their wage and benefit offers, he believes the union can gain more if it holds out longer in its contract talks.

Which is why some people are concerned. It seems a good thing to me if people DON’T support communists, even when they feel like it’s giving them some short term personal gain.

Or it could be that members are more focused on their immediate sit6, what they believe needs to change sooner rather than later instead of the UAW and political philosophy of the 20th century and the implications for the years 2050 and beyond based on current geopolitical climate change assumptions and international labor policy and trends given most UAW members desire to provide for their families in the short term while allowing for their progeny to elevate their status to higher paying salaries without working in the factories of their parents thus negating the need for low skill labor forces and the existential, metaphysical basis that lead to unions and ultimately the very union itself.

You know...the stuff that concerns the INGO elites.

Yes. Yes.

 

[Ingomike]

Yes. Yes.

How?

 

[bobzilla]

Yes. Yes.

Why does it matter? Does that make creeds posts worth less since he was not UAW?
