Media coverage of UAW: “What really gets me is how the news talks like we get $60 or $70 an hour... New temps get $16 an hour and no raises, no vacation, no sick days. It’s hard to live like that.” (labornotes.org)

I'm sure that figure is also the base wage plus the benefits to make it seem like they are payed an inflated amount. You don't take home your healthcare to spend on living.
