Tesla CEO Elon Musk Slams Biden For Supporting UAW Demands: 'Sure Way To Drive GM, Ford And Chrysler Bankrupt'
$Tesla (TSLA.US)$ CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday voiced his disagreements with President Joe Biden's comments at the picket lines in Michigan with striking autoworkers.
$特斯拉 (TSLA.US)$ 首席執行官 埃隆馬斯克 週二表達了他與總統的分歧 喬·拜登他在密歇根州的糾察線上與罷工的汽車工人發表了評論。
What Happened: The 46th U.S. president traveled to Michigan to show support for the United Auto Workers (UAW) union which is striking against the three major Detroit motor companies— $Ford Motor (F.US)$, $General Motors (GM.US)$ and $Stellantis NV (STLA.US)$— on Tuesday.
發生了什麼: 這位第46任美國總統前往密歇根州,表示支持美國汽車工人聯合會(UAW),該工會正在打擊底特律三大汽車公司—— $福特汽車 (F.US)$, $通用汽車 (GM.US)$ 和 $Stellantis NV (STLA.US)$— 星期二。
Stick with it," Biden told workers. "Because you deserve the significant raise you need and other benefits." Biden added that the workers should indeed be able to bargain for a 40% pay hike.
堅持下去,” 拜登告訴工人。“因爲你理應得到所需的大幅加薪和其他福利。”拜登補充說,工人確實應該能夠討價還價加薪40%。
"Maybe he (Biden) could also pop over to see our southern border at some point," Musk wrote on X, formerly Twitter, referring to reports of migrant crossings at the border. Musk had previously alleged that the current administration is taking no preventive action again these crossings that he pegged at about 2 million every year.
馬斯克在X(前身爲Twitter)上寫道:“也許他(拜登)也可能在某個時候過來看看我們的南部邊境,” 他指的是有關移民在邊境過境的報道。馬斯克此前曾聲稱,現任政府沒有再次採取任何預防措施,他認爲這些過境點每年約爲200萬次。

Musk also criticized the workers' demands alleging that they would cause bankruptcy of the legacy automakers. "They want a 40% pay raise *and* a 32 hour workweek. Sure way to drive GM, Ford and Chrysler bankrupt in the fast lane," Musk wrote.
馬斯克還批評了工人的要求,聲稱這將導致傳統汽車製造商破產。“他們希望加薪40%*和*每週工作32小時。當然,這是讓通用汽車、福特和克萊斯勒在快車道上破產的方法,” 馬斯克寫道。

Why It Matters: Musk's comments on better pay leading way to bankruptcy is in contrast with his previous claim that the EV giant pays more than the union's demands. "We pay more than the UAW btw, but performance expectations are also higher," Musk had said.
爲什麼重要: 馬斯克關於更高薪酬導致破產的評論與他之前的說法形成鮮明對比,即這家電動汽車巨頭支付的費用超過了工會的要求。馬斯克說:“順便說一句,我們支付的薪水超過了UAW,但業績預期也更高。”
He then touted the 'vibe' at Tesla factories and added, "Tesla and SpaceX factories have a great vibe. We encourage playing music and having some fun. Very important for people to look forward to coming to work!"
然後,他吹捧了特斯拉工廠的'氛圍',並補充說:“特斯拉和SpaceX工廠的氛圍很棒。我們鼓勵播放音樂和玩得開心。對於人們來說,期待上班非常重要!”
