Oof, I don’t feel so good for the UAW peoples that are striking. Need more to strike and need more companies being striked. Fuck these companies that siphon money and let their workers live and die in poverty
Well, more than half of Stellantis factories are in Europe and have at least an half decent collective working agreement in place. I don't even want to imagine how bad the contracts for the factories they have in Asia and Africa are though.
This is a very smart strike. Firstly they're able to stretch the use of their strike fund by not having all members go at once. Second they can target high demand factories while continuing to overproduce in others causing the company to not meet demand for certain models and continue to oversupply in others.
