It’s good for unions to be worried about there being fewer jobs in the future, but one thing is certain: it takes less labor to not build cars at all. _If_ the number of workers in the industry is going to decrease, the unions should discuss with manufacturers how they’re going to do that nicely, e.g. by helping them get another job, by letting elderly workers retire earlier, etc. This article points out that may not be true, though. If so, unions should negotiate on such things as training workers on building electric cars with light metal bodies. I don’t think American unions are good unions, though, so if the amount of labor goes down, they’ll probably try to find ways for it to require the same number of workers, making American manufacturers less competitive.
