the reason for that is when chrysler and g.m. were in serious trouble, the government held, the union in order to save these plants and save essentially the automobile industry, they did major givebacks of their wages and benefits. so management insisted and the workers went along to major pay cuts, set up a tiered wage system. new workers, hundreds and hundreds, over a thousand at a plant of over 6,000 workers were making substandard wages. that's troubling enough that those workers years later still are making those substandard wages. in some cases you can't support a family on these wages, yet, that's when chrysler and g.m. were in such economic trouble. since then, we know how well chrysler, stellantis now, and g.m. are doing. we know how well they're doing by a number of -- number one, stellantis made $12 billion just in this calendar year alone. this company made $12 billion. when they were in trouble, the workers by giving up a lot, making sacrifices saved them. now that the companies are so profitable, $12 billion this ye
