How can this be? GM laying off workers? But it’s all about building the EV.

UAW Local 5960 member Kimberly Fuhr inspects a Chevrolet Bolt EV during vehicle production on May 6, 2021, at the General Motors Orion Assembly Plant in Orion Township, Michigan.

How can this be? GM laying off workers? But it’s all about building the EV. Not so long ago we were told that this new contract would make life so much better for the union folk. Huge raise come at a price, but no the workers wouldn’t listen. Now the layoffs begin.

First it was the slashing od 24% of the workforce at it’s Cruse division. And all the robo taxi’s built there recalled.

Now this. GM plans to lay off about 1,300 workers in Michigan starting early next year due to vehicles they produce ending production, the company disclosed in state documents.

But don’t worry they will have jobs for you in 2025. Yeah right.

Joe offers GM billions for Electric cars. GM says thanks. They’re spending a billion in Mexico to build cars.

General Motors plans to invest more than $1 billion in a plant in Mexico to produce electric vehicles. The facility will begin producing at least one EV beginning in 2023, GM said. Getty Images.

You see Joe offering billions to the American Auto industry. Well one company is sending a billion to Mexico. For what you say? Well let’s let CNBC tell you what the real deal is involving GM.

General Motors plans to invest more than $1 billion in Mexico to produce electric vehicles, the company announced Thursday.  The investment in its Ramos Arizpe production complex is the first major announcement by the automaker for EV production in Mexico. United Auto Workers Vice President Terry Dittes, who leads GM members, called the investment a “slap in the face” to the union members and U.S. taxpayers.

The company declined to discuss what vehicle or vehicles will be produced there. So if the American workers want a raise, guess what happens to the making of GM electric vehicles here. Also this plant he went to in Detroit? The workers make about half of what the regular plant workers make with pay and benefits. Go Electric.
