You are welcome!!! We understand solidarity is about not an individual but the union as a whole. We were set with our product investments and we wanted to make sure we are one brotherhood and sisterhood of UAW members looking out for each other. Solidarity Forever.

At least we should be thankful is we have a pretty good contract. College drop out or not, voting YES is the right move for our futures. Thank you.

Casting my YES vote soon.

This is good to know. We have high unemployment here. I plan on voting YES and still be employed. Not taking a chance with a strike or lockout. When I compare this contract with having no job, no unemployment or food stamps, it's a no-brainer. It's YES automatically.

Thanks, so it is more than just here that people are lying to us about if you don't vote it's a yes vote. These liars should be ashamed. They are playing with our futures based on lies.

I am voting YES for all of our futures. Even those no voters who want to condemn us to a strike or lockout.

With a strike or lockout we have a good chance of loosing our jobs. That's what I get from this.

If you don't vote on the contract it does not count as a yes vote. No voters have been lying to us for years by telling us that by not voting is a YES VOTE. This is a LIE. If you want to vote YES, you must go and vote YES.

We are not eligible for unemployment or food stamps if on strike or locked out in Missouri. http://www.labor.mo.gov/DES/Forms/4713-AI.pdf

I am voting YES. I am tired of all the no voters and the lies they are spreading. Sheesh, we have great jobs with great pay and benefits. We are getting work in most of our plants and some want us to vote no. I plan on going to my job on the line at the end of next week not the picket line.

That is pretty scary stuff. But, I guess management would prepare for any scenario.

Why is your picture of a porn star?

When you have a full plant and have OT, you don't understand that the rest of America is hurting, it's not like us. People view things based on their own realities. For many of us our reality is that everyone has it as good as us. This is untrue, but people believe it.

The company knows we are divided so they do get the advantage.

Where can I read this nonunionslug?

OK, from what I understand, we have the following options-- 1) pass the contract 2) don't pass the contract If we don't pass the contract, any of the following can occur-- 1) go back to the table 2) go on strike--limited or total company stirke 3) company locks us out 4) work without a contract 5) other? If 2 & 3, we can be permanently replaced legally. #4, the company can change our pay and benefits. For #2, we get $200 a week if we walk the picket line with no benefits. We don't get food stamps or unemployment. Anything I am missing?

Nice piece. Is there any reason you didn't put the article on the site? It is worth it.
