No proof but I do know how businesses work. Don't know about the raises and don't care but I'm sure even the custodian makes $18+ and some type of bonus at start time, bomb *** benefits all with little to no skills.

exactly,you dont have any proof.


under recent contract negotiations starting pay was lowered and so was top pay along with benefits.

and do you really think mustangs will go up 4k in base price compared to a camaro?

since you know how business work you know theyll charge whatever they can get regardless of labor costs.

im sure youre also aware of R@D costs too?

lol..where's your proof that prices won't go up?? Labor costs have aDIRECT effect on final product prices.. You take this internet thing too serious..you ain't gonna make anyone think differently, no need to get all technical on ls1tech lol..yes I'm aware of RD, no I don't think the Mustang price will increase by 4k just because of this, BUT IT WILL RISE, you can believe anything you want but there's always another side to the story..if you think uniosn are never at the wrong or overstep your delusional.

I'm neither for or against unions. My bro, sis and more than a few other people I know are in unions and that's where I'm coming from.
