Must be because they're greedy?  :lol:

Not offhand, but I'm sure you'll tell me.

I don't think I can feed you any information that could crack through that brainwashing. :D

where is that big blue wave coming from?

https://uaw.org/uaw-statement-on-tariffs-and-renegotiating-u-s-trade-agreements/

QuoteThe UAW supports aggressive tariff action to protect American manufacturing jobs as a good first step to undoing decades of anti-worker trade policy. We do not support using factory workers as pawns in a fight over immigration or drug policy. We are willing to support the Trump Administration's use of tariffs to stop plant closures and curb the power of corporations that pit US workers against workers in other countries. But so far, Trump's anti-worker policy at home, including dissolving collective bargaining agreements and gutting the National Labor Relations Board, leaves American workers facing worsening wages and working conditions even while the administration takes aggressive tariff action.

If Trump is serious about bringing back good blue-collar jobs destroyed by NAFTA, the USMCA, and the WTO, he should go a step further and immediately seek to renegotiate our broken trade deals.

The EPI has a cost of living calculator for raising a family. I think I've posted it on this forum and the other forum in the past. If you've looked at that calculator year after year, the yearly cost of supporting a two child family and the US average family yearly income, the gap has been getting wider by the year.

I've never had kids. I don't know how anyone can afford them these days. I can barely afford a pet.  :D

They used to buy them from a large plant in Alabama, but EPA green energy and zero carbon mandates
drove the plant into bankruptcy.

I guarantee you that most who voted no (if not all) are doing so out of either pressure from outside sources or money kickbacks.
No sane person would vote against it.
