Perry,
Where did you get your information, I was just listening to a UAW REP, on the radio, and he said they now have a 2 teared pay scale that came down in 95 from the contract negotiation with the automaker and they gave up
$1 an hour for medical, and that was a 30 Billion dollars back to the auto makers a year, and the low end of the scale is $14 an hour for new hires, and the average pay is $18 an hour, no I have no doubt that there are workers that get paid more, but even with benefits included I don't see ware $73.20 is possible. I get paid $26 and with my benefits its only coming to $42 an hour so how is it possible it could add up to that much?
