Re: “Ford buyout plan chills UAW locals”, Aug. 23
The Ford buyout plan for its hourly workers is a good deal for the company and the workers opting to accept the plan but leaders of UAW locals are opposed to the plan, “Ford buyout plan chills UAW locals”, Aug. 23.
It appears that even though the buyout plan is great for UAW members, it’s really all about the UAW and its leaders; they fear extinction and want the leaving workers replaced.
With the U.S. auto industry in a fight for its very life, the UAW, realizing that they are part of the problem, should allow its members to leave while the leaving is good and have the last member leaving, just turn off the lights.
