Chrysler doesn’t have to pay the “surplus” workers during a strike, but can still import Chery’s from China to come in badged as Chryslers eventually.
Which is to say, Chrysler’s owner Cerebus *wants* this strike to last, and last, and last...
Thus, if the strike ends it will only be because the UAW was smart enough to cave, and cave big time.
Cerberus is rethinking the Chery plan, especially after the Brilliance disaster.
You DO know it was Mercedes’ idea to import Chery-produced cars and not Cerberus’, right?
