The issue with most UAW rank and file is, most all of them live well beyond their means and when the union strikes and their 500 a week strike pay kicks in, it will be a 'Heartache Tonight' for them and pretty quick like I might add.
I sometimes wonder how large the UAW 'piggy bank' bank is. I have to surmise not enough to be on strike for a protracted amount of time, plus they loose their health and welfare as well.
Like I said, gonna be an interesting week. I would imagine that some will get other jobs but not very many jobs come with the wages and benefits they now enjoy for doing as little as possible and being rewarded for it.
Also interesting that the main stream media is ignoring it. Guess, putting your head in the sand will make it all better.
I'll comment again on Friday after they strike.
