One of the things that liberal groups, unions included, have been good at is creating a narrative and selling that to the media. A case in point is the current United Auto Workers strike, which is being presented by the union as involving a bold new strategy of targeted walkouts. Don’t believe the hype. This is a case of the union lacking the resolve to do more.
CNN explained, “The UAW referred to its targeted strike of three plants as a ‘Stand Up Strike,’ which it called a strategic ‘new approach’ to walking off the job.” All of this sounds very dramatic, but take a closer look at what is actually happening. Closing three plants doesn’t mean that much when General Motors alone has a dozen plants in the United States. Fewer than 13,000 of the UAW’s 145,000 members have walked off the job. This is contrary to the whole concept of a strike. It’s like the old joke: “What if they held a war and nobody showed up?”
