        And he has done wonders so far this year. Absolutely the right person to lead the UAW after years of corruption.

          Can you provide examples of changes he made? I support them but not aware of his specific actions

            I assume it’s about the recent strike of the big 3 all at the same time. Also starting out slow with largely symbolic strikes, until companies didn’t play ball then striking the most profitable plants, and backing off when negotiations were going well.

    VW is odd since it is a German company and about as unionized as you can get.

      VW factories in the US are not unionized.

        I know. That’s why it’s odd. VW should have no problem with a union.

          I think you’re confused. VW has unions in Germany because Germany actually cares about its citizens. They wouldn’t have unions if you gave them the option.

            It was a contingency when world war 2 ended that the boards in Germany be made in part of union members, it was a US idea

            VW tried twice to unionize their US factory in Chattanooga. Both times the workers voted against unionisation. VW does a lot for unions and workers councils compared to other companies.

                VW wanted the union at the first vote.

                https://truthout.org/articles/volkswagen-workers-vote-on-union-works-council-scheme/

                https://www.wsj.com/articles/union-vote-at-volkswagen-tennessee-plant-heading-to-close-1392379887

                The VW management, the German union and the German Workers council wanted the plant to unionize. VW is a lot more pro union than Amazon. Die to German law there are a lot of union members on the board. The 2014 vote was opposed by local politicians, mainly republicans.
