Excellent explanation of the moral as well as economic reasoning for the UAW position. Go @UAW!
Shawn Fain, president of @UAW, went on CNN. When asked if a strike could hurt the economy he said: "It's not that we're going to wreck the economy. We're going to wreck their economy, the economy that only works for the billionaire class. It doesn't work for the working class."

«We are gonna wreck their economy» A better framing from tha UAW side would be: «The management are wrecking their companies economy by not offering their workers a fair share of the income» That is forcing the workers to use their only tool to fight back, namely to strike.

In a Kleptocracy you can argue that any consideration of the rights of workers in contract agreements with employers is anti kleptocratic. That would be true. Not so in a in a real democracy. The anti union forces are actually demonizing democracy.

If they got their way, they’d see trickle down economics in a very bad way. Just say no to socialism and communism, folks!

Being Pro Union, is being Anti Worker... Most workers, don't have to pay to get a good job...unions are 100% tools of Democrat Party and automatically donate to Locals. Unions helped drive US industry off shore.

Not moral at all. The UAW is corrupt. You are corrupt.
