UAW will negotiate back pay for them, and they’ll get it.

Unions need to be banned.

Are these strikers also being forced to take LWOP since they aren't sick and their actions shouldn't be eligible for vacation leave use?

You guys are idiots.

This is a headline for "eff unions"

Same Union has 850 million in strike funds, the interest of which will cover these members insurance. The UAW will get paid back for whatever they spend on strikes. It's a no win situation for GM.

But hey, it sounds like a zinger right!

Every dollar they spend on strike pay ($12.5M per week) and COBRA (likely more than strike pay) is a dollar they can't give the Democrats.

This part is hilarious

Rumors had swirled late Monday that striking UAW members were no longer covered by company health care, the cost of which is a major issue in contract talks.

To ease the concerns, Terry Dittes, vice president for the UAW's GM Department,  sent out a letter saying GM would continue health care benefits through the end of the month for all UAW-represented employees "as provided for in the contract."

But Dittes later told members he received a letter from GM Tuesday "confirming that our striking members' health care coverage has been cut off by General Motors.
It gets better!


GM has said in the past that it annually spends about $1 billion a year on healthcare coverage for its hourly workers, suggesting the monthly cost per worker is in the range of $1,700 to $2,000. The UAW on its website said its strike fund covers certain benefits such as medical and prescription drugs, but not dental, vision and hearing. (uaw.org/strike-faq/)
So now UAW is on the hook for $250 per week + $500 in healthcare costs, and the members won't get access to some of their benefits during the strike.

Damn near a billion dollars in the strike fund. A BILLION dollars. Just set aside to strike.

"The union had $721 million in its strike fund in 2018 and temporarily increased dues in March this year to boost it to $850 million."

Because nobody is entitled to a job.

Don’t like the working conditions? Go elsewhere.

Striking is for petulant children.

How old are you?

I'm asking because the answer to that question will determine whether you should get a history lesson on communist influences in American labor organizations and unions or if you just get ignored so I don't waste my time.

Spare us the hard working man bullshit.

These are overpaid slobs that are die hard members of the dimocrat party that would take your private health care, guns, and most of your income and waste it on third world shitholers that waltz across the border for free shit, health care, and a bit o rape and a few that will rent a GM built truck to run over christmas shoppers.

They are commies, acting like commies.

The irony is that ultimately, the union is just another corporation or company.

People that organized a corporation, they then negotiated with people and other corporations to that corporations best interests.

Like every other corporation.

But hey! Hail Corporations!!! Except this particular corporation!

In perfect world, GM could fire people that didn't work.  They can't.

Of course people should be allowed to associate with other people or groups freely.

If you don't let them associate freely, it's so much harder to find socialist enclaves and communist sympathizers.

They can. GM can stop working with anyone they want and hire whoever they want.

They've made contracts which have obligations which have consequences, but if they don't like it they shouldn't have agreed.
