ford workers freeze wages, now we need congress to NOT take their AUTOMATIC raises ,or i guess it only pertains to the peons not the important folks.

Our county commission can only get a raise with voter approval. I think they make between 6 and 12 thousand a year and get a personal vehicle to use plus expenses and staff. I guess the voters feel they make enough on kickbacks and job appointments that they don't need any extra tax dollars going in their pocket.


How much does a Ford worker make an hour when you roll in benefits. About $65.00 an hour I'd guess.

Yeah, all those union salary myths are with benefits rolled in.

Although if I roll in my benefits, I still don't make that much, and I'm still making monthly payments on my degree.
