Yes, I'd like to see the numbers also.
I just spent a bit of time at the UAW site. They seem to like to talk out of both sides of their mouth. Right from their FAQ page, they link to this info:
About - Frequently Asked Questions
Research Bulletin
That is
43.36% union over non-union delta.
So that's the data when they want to show all the good the UAW does for it's members. But, when they want to downplay this for the public, on the home page of the same site, they say this:
Save Auto Jobs: Debunking the $70-per-hour myth
So, now they cherry pick the year and the basis (excluding benefits) to come up with a
14.3% union over non-union delta.
And neither number appears to include legacy costs, so these are more representative of what an employee is actually receiving in compensation (wages plus benefits).
So, I would be interested in knowing how these figures break down on a per car or per $ basis. But I'm not going to accept any number w/o some background to understand what that number represents.
