The automakers combine benefits with wages to make the number seem much larger than it actually is, so the workers sound greedy.
Their current wages are around $20/hr. Calling that "$60/hr with benefits" is beyond misleading , it's fucking disgusting. You can't pay rent with benefits, fuck off.
Don't tone police me honey 🙄 when you side with the bosses you become my enemy. Don't be surprised when I treat you like one.
The demand is to increase the top hourly rate to $47 per hour - so use that number, not the numbers fed to you by the industry. That's what wages should be if they had kept up with productivity and inflation over the past several decades.
Then I'll tell you to fuck off and eat my ass as much as I want you fucking class traitor. If you act like an enemy you get treated like one.
Why the fuck are you trying to nickle-and-dime the workers? What's wrong with you?
No, what's wrong with the world is class traitors siding with the ruling class to suppress the workers.
Your boss is your enemy. Treat him like it.
Bigoted against... bosses? It's a class war honey, and the ruling class has been winning this war my entire life and are richer than ever.
The world needs less billionaires.
The billionaires are the ones reaping the profits you damn fool! The shareholders are the true boss of any publicly traded company and they are the enemy. CEOs are just figureheads.
You're a sniveling coward. You don't want to make the ruling class mad because you are afraid they'll take away the jobs, so instead you loyally serve them like a good little class traitor.
What the fuck? I will never be straight!
Continuing to post the exact same article, and parrot the same talking point, isn't exactly painting you in a good light. If you want discussion, try moving forward with it.
Sure, but in order to change the narrative, you need to move forward, saying the same thing over and over will result in the same responses, and get you where you are. I personally disagree with your points, but if you raise them in good faith, then you deserve to be heard. The key is "in good faith", if you're unwilling to accept you may be wrong, how can you expect others to?
Discussion is difficult on lemmy, but the only way to make it better is to keep trying.
