Rough road but the way to kick the Union in the ass is to close the plant indefinitely. It would be a hardship but arm guards should be posted with order that any destructive Union members will be shot.
Move the jobs South to a Right to Work state.
Don’t close the plant. Hire and Train scab workers and do away with the Union completely.
The Union states that Caterpillar has made record profits, and for some reason they think that means they should get higher salaries and more benefits. In a time when thousands of people are out of work, the Union will get no sympathy from me for trying to extort the company they work for.
everytime i see articles about unions going on strike, i would really like to see a basic listing of the average pay and benefits they receive, so the average joe sixpack can see what they are arguing for more of...
this story is the same old same old...how much do they get now in compensation and what more do they want?
Cat should close this plant and move out of state ; South Carolina or Alabama perhaps.
Close the plant. Move it to a “right to work” state. End of problem.
Time to move the company to a RTW state, across the state line to Indiana comes to mind.
