A NO vote for now. However, UAW will not give up. The left never gives up. They come back time after time, and then again.

These are “right to work” states. I see a major dilemma for the UAW at Volkswagen in Tennessee when hundreds of workers who voted against the UAW refuse to join the union … and end up getting paid pretty much the same as the UAW without paying union dues.

I give it five years before the workers vote to decertify the UAW.

To put it another way, nothing is ever settled until it is settled the way the left wants it settled, and then it stays settled until the left decides it wants it settled another way, and then it is never settled until it is settled the new way, [endless loop].

OTOH, if one of their cars happens to fall into the sea, it should never be brought up too quickly, or it might suffer from Mercedes Benz.

Do a quick study on the demographics of the workers in Tennessee and Alabama.

Let no be surprised if, down the road, VW invests in the latest and greatest automation and robots and, in order to save some money and machines replace humans, start laying folks off.

And, of course, Biden wins it won’t be hard to ship building to Mexico

I’m not against unions. They are a protected 1st amendment freedom of association activity. What I oppose is extortion, blackmail, mandatory deductions from workers paychecks to pay for fancy cars and houses for the union delegates and lobbyists.

If you have a good job, good benefits, good pay, good insurance, good retirement plan... what the heck do you need a union for? And if you do have a grievance at some point, you put a few of the top people together to go talk to management and work it out.
