To all of my brothers and sisters out there..... We need your help. The UAW has several contracts coming up this year as well as next. Now, I don't know how much money CAF makes but I do know at the local Ford plant in Louisville is $38 an hour. They just had over 500 people get an almost $20 a hour raise. The reason I'm typing this is because my wife stumbled upon a Go Fund Me Page for the UAW. Here is the bitch. My wife is an UAW member. She works for a vender of Ford, not at the plant so she doesn't make any where near $38 a hour. The people at the plant can bring home $7800 a year in a profit sharing check and cry about that. My wife is lucky if she brings home $400.
All that said; last year the UAW raised union dues by 25% in order to make a stronger strike fund. Now, I have failed to mention that my beautiful wife pays into this "strike fund" but she has a no strike clause. So, she'll never get any benefit from it. Furthermore, when they voted to increase union dues they did it not with union members but 1100 delegates at there national convention. They did this by Yeas and Nays. When they couldn't tell the difference then they had a good old fashion hand raising. I want to know who counted all those hands and how does one make sure the there isn't anyone holding up two hands????
But I digress, My point is our brothers and sisters in the union need our help. Please, Please, Please go find the Go Fund Me page and at least give your next months rent so these people don't have to live in poverty. For the one time cost of $1400-$1500 dollars you can ensure that these people can lay on their ass and still pay their bills.
