Five Ford Ford Plants Poised To Strike If Negotiations Sour

A vote by Ford Motor Co union workers to authorize a strike if negotiations between the United Auto Workers and Ford turn sour is well on its way to passage, union officials said on Wednesday.

United Auto Workers at five of Ford's biggest plants have overwhelmingly voted this week to authorize a strike. The lowest rate of affirmative votes at the five plants was 97 percent.

hmmm $54.5 million divided among about 200,000 staff... would be an insult to UAW workers everywhere, only $272.50 instead of the non mandatory $5,000 profit sharing they got.

Unions and union workers will never learn. They just keep pushing jobs out of this country by making it too expensive to produce anything here.........plant after plant closes down due to unions. Companies aren't losing American jobs by moving them elsewhere, unions are losing the jobs.
