The absolutely beautiful reason that I can tell that they still aren’t agreeing to Fords concessions is because they in solidarity with new workers that don’t even exist yet, are demanding that Fords new battery plants they are building be placed under the same labor agreement they are fighting for.

“The UAW, according to Ford officials, has taken a hard line on requiring the company’s four new battery plants be placed under the terms of the labor agreement.”

    Correct, but not that the union people all has to learn things at some point. Ford has to train several hundred new people every year anyway.

      “Several hundred” is two orders of magnitude less than 10,000.
