[Prange]

Looks like the taxpayers are going to pay for cars they don't want:

This is why I’m ashamed to admit I’m former UAW member, they are woke!

Yep. They're all concerned about the gubberment $$$ and not what the consumer really needs and wants.

The handouts will continue since these vehicles will be total failures like they are now.

I can't think of any labor union "leaders" that are not in bed with the politicians. They all talk a good game, especially around election time. As long as they get their end, they don't give a rat's ass about the rank and file.

Just follow the $$$$.

Always always always

Always amazes me how a politician can make 250K a year & their net worth is 50 million

Always were! Always will be! The leadership anyways. The membership is much more conservative than the leadership which makes no damn sense but that is what I see.

Dealt with the UAW many years. They’re a business that wants their members to believe they’re always looking out for their best interests. How many corrupt politicians tell you the same thing? Nuff said.

We complain...yet we let both factions ply their trade...

Support the plan that will fire workers because they don't need that many and even Stellantis has came out and said they would be building all their EV components inhouse. I haven't heard a single peep if the UAW will get a piece of the action but I know some of those new plants are joint ventures with other companies

You go on strike and the Ram 1500 production goes to Mexico with the HD trucks.

I've had both. HD trucks are basically junk.

I think Unifor is going to stab the UAW in the back honestly. Bring some more production to Canada, get some tax breaks from Black face, I mean Trudeau, send more product across the Southern Boarder, and Stellantis will truly be an "Import" company

Battery plants are being built here in Windsor & another in St Thomas 100 miles up the highway
Both these plants are massive

The tax money given to these companies is crazy
Basically Canada outbid the US to get them

25 to 30 billion in incentives over 10 years

We have been waiting for a new hospital in Windsor for 10 years & its still in planning

Land for the battery plant was being cleared days after its announcement

 

[DavidKFla]

There's never been enough money for the people. We have always accepted that because we are naive, trusting fools.

Yeah they trying to get it online by next year so they can roll out all the EV's Winsor is going to make. Charger Daytona, Airflow, and I believe I was told another STLA L vehicle. Then heard Brampton was in talks to become another battery plant or could build one of Jeep's new SUV's there depending on tax breaks involving Belvidere.
