Since the UAW is part owner of the competing GM and Chrysler.....they have a vested interest to cause trouble for Ford.
Both the UAW and the governments of the US and Canada seem to have at least some motive for Ford to join the socialist auto empire (I hope they can withstand the pressure). Governments never consider the unintended consequences. Ford failing will probably mean that any jobs that are created by GM and Chysler will be lost by Ford. This reminds me of the goverments “credits” to taxpayers for buying Yaris’ a few years ago (in Canada). It may have worked but as a result of buying Yaris’ people were no longer buying GM and Chysler cars. So you see that within only a few years the government has completely reversed course and is not saying, “Please buy a GM car”. No doubt “credits” will be given to anyone who buys GM or Chysler which of course is a direct attack on Ford. If it ends up working Ford will be in big trouble. And on and on the cycle goes
This policy is a horrible one
