If the people in the technology industry bragged as much as the Union about accomplishments, they would get laughed out of the VC office for never showing results of business accomplishments after 73 years!!
After 73 years of UAW existence there is very little to show for their tongue and cheek accomplishments, but lots of braggers and no results.
Honestly, after 73 years of UAW telling us they know how to build cars and they know how to manage labor and the executives did everything wrong and the government must give tax breaks and put tariffs on imported cars (notice Flat, Alfa Romeo, Seat, Peugeot and Citroen do not exist in USA); the only results I see is American Motor Corporation (out of business), Oldsmobile (Oldest car company with most Nascar Pace Cars, out of business), Cord (out of business), De Soto (out of business), Plymouth(out of business), Eagle (out of business), Nash (out of business), Packard (out of business), Studebaker (out of business), REO (out of business), Pierce Arrow (out of business), Graham (out of business) Auburn (out of business), Franklin (out of business), Hudson (out of business), Kaiser (out of business), and etc., etc., etc.
73 years of many opportunities to save many USA automotive companies by the workers, but there is no evidence.
With 73 years to prove the UAW know how to run business (with all their bad mouthing of Auto executives the UAW must know how to run a company otherwise they wouldn’t be speaking up so much), and they must know how to save money (the UAW collect more in membership fees than a $250,000.00 life insurance policy.) and they must know how to build factories from all the bragging they have done regarding how UAW build the factories of America, and they must know how to staff a company since they keep bragging about how they are in every industry, and they keep bragging about how UAW and union workers build everything from antennas to zippers, ...why is there not one evidence of a UAW financed, UAW designed, UAW staffed, and UAW building automobiles with all their know-how!! 73 years of bragging and no results!
Zero!
It’s the longest running bragging that has resulted in no historical evidence of any business accomplishments. None!
If their policies are so good, then where are the businesses that they build, with their own money, with their own hand, with their own labor practices, with their investments? Where are the results they brag about?
Zero!
