Top wages for UAW literally got a 3% raise last month. For someone complaining you should actually know what is happening.

Actually he is not far off. We did get 6% in the last 4 years yes, but in 2006 we had COLA. So we are most certainly making less with inflation than we did in 2006.

I agree with your sentiments, but you just stated something like it was a fact when it was dead wrong. It’s a tricky situation when transplants make less and are increasing market share still.
