Question:

AXLE strike?

I don‘t know alot about current events, even less about this AXLE UAW strike, but how long might this go on? My friend who works in an auto wheel producing plant was layed off today. She has worked there 11 years and others that have worked there twice as long were layed off too.

Answer:

It will go on until both sides agree to the terms of a new contract.
It sounds like it may be a long strike unless GM gets involved,American Axle is now talking about moving operations to Mexico now.How a company can give it's top executives a 10% raise and then ask the workers to take a 50% pay cut is beyond belief.
