The United Auto Workers union is bent on being the epitome of it. UAW’s President Shawn Fain:
I think we should push a 32-hour work week.
In return for working less, the union is willing to settle for
- Increased paid time off
- Double-digit raises
In an ideal world, Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis, along with the other major car companies that assemble their cars in the US, will have the stones to tell the union to take a hike. American companies are not job welfare entities, they exist to produce goods and services for consumers and to make profits for their owners.
If the union wants to have a light work week and big pay, it should start its own car company and operate within those parameters.
