How Much Do UAW Workers Really Make?
Because all the benefits like health, dental, life insuranace, and 401k are taken out of my paycheck every two weeks.
So let's say assuming my salary grade is $40/hr that's before tax and benefits.

I am still amazed every time I think about this. They are uneducated blue collars doing menial tasks over and over how is it that teachers, medical professionals...hell about anyone with a decent education , doesnt make that kind of money. I hope they go bankrupt so they can screw the union.
If you guys look at footage of the UAW workers on the production line you would feel that a stoned teenager could do their jobs , and do it faster. And actually if you include the cost of their benefits their pay is closer to 71 dollars an hour. Its like GM's workers and union is like an invasive cancer that will kill its carrier

Fine, so let's say the average pay of UAW workers is $40/hr for monkey-see-monkey-do jobs. Just to put this in perspective:
An aerospace engineer with a master's in aerospace engineering from a tier-1 national university with 2 years of working experience under the belt who works for the nation's 4th largest defense company in Los Angeles, CA makes...
$37.625/hr (including health benefit and vacation pay)
So if you are telling me that UAW workers aren't overpaid then I say HAFU.

I found this link on another forum, looks like Ford employees have lots of extra time for drinking over extra long lunch hours. I guess all that high pay goes for something...

Doesn't it make you feel good your hard earned tax dollars are going to support this?? I know if I did this I would not have a job!
