128 weeks. Check out this table:

That's 2.5 years of major plant disruptions and untold billions in lost revenue.
THE UAW HAS ALL THE LEVERAGE.
If that upsets you, maybe you should earn $17/hr for a labor position so you can get a true understanding of what's at stake.

All the money we'll save is just icing on the cake.

It definitely wouldn't be the main reason.

Google, Microsoft, and IBM all have Indian CEOs, so there must not have been any Americans who were qualified for the job.

We need to increase immigration by Indian CEOs immediately to fill the big, critical shortage.

They have enough for 12 weeks, the big 3 will lose about 5 billions in 3 weeks. So they big 3 are fu---d if they mess around

“If the big three does a scorched earth lock out, figure $825M strike fund, 146k workers, low $17/hr and high $35/hr, seems like at best a little over a week.”

Strikers make $500 a week. Period.

Mary makes 29 million a year.

American CEOs are way too expensive for what you get.

I bet we can get an Indian CEO who'll work for 200k, and save a ton of money.

3 months, give or take. The math is pretty easy to do.
