‘If Tesla gets unionized it’s because we deserve it’: Elon Musk says he’s made his factory workers millionaires but concedes some may still turn against him

Elon Musk says the UAW’s plans to unionize Tesla staff will be down, in part, to the company’s failings if successful.

I am a big fan of Tesla. The cars are amazing. Generally I respect Elon, who has a track record of success. I support unions but I would never join one.

I think this is the best quote from the article.

“I don’t know, maybe they will unionize,” he mused. “If Tesla gets unionized it will be because we deserved it, and because we failed in some way.”

Elon has made many employees rich. If they unionize, they jeopardize the benefits that made them rich. I can’t see the company agreeing to be as generous when dealing with a union.

Unions need to be outlawed.

Management collectively bargains; why shouldn’t labor be able to?

Something should countervail the power of the corporate organization; that’s a labor union.
