Ford announced new EV truck starting at $39,000

Now the cheapest model starts at ~$63,000

Whatever they're doing, it's wrong.

Is it possible that they pay fair wages?

[-] ObsidianZed@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 4 months ago

I have little knowledge on the subject but considering the unions and the strikes, I'ma say unlikely.

The UAW just won historic wage increases. The strike was successful.

I think the problem is that the strike was even necessary.
