MSNBC: Striking UAW Workers Currently Only Earning ‘$63 an Hour’

‘That’s with benefits’

EXCERPT:

LEBEAU: “Well, all in, with benefits, Craig, it’s about $63 an hour, that’s with benefits. You know, when you say that number people go, wow, they’re making $63 an hour, no that’s with benefits, everything in there. But compare that with Ford at $61, Fiat Chrysler to $55, and on average the foreign auto plants here in the U.S., those workers with their benefits are about $50 an hour. So General Motors already — and they point this out, they have a rich benefits package, relative to their competitors, certainly when it comes to the United Auto Workers.”
