Striking members of the United Auto Workers in Belleville, Mich., Sept. 26. Photo: EVELYN HOCKSTEIN/REUTERSClifford Winston’s op-ed “UAW Strike May Hasten Detroit’s Decline” (Sept. 22) says little about the United Auto Workers’ role in shrinking the domestic auto industry by half over the past 40 years. My employer, Ford, employed around 400,000 in its heyday. The loss of workforce and closing of plants were due to the UAW’s contract agreements and restrictive work rules, agreed to by the company under duress. These helped make Detroit uncompetitive.

A ‘UAW On Strike’ sign held on a picket line in Burton, Mich., Sept. 25. Photo: Emily Elconin/Bloomberg NewsClifford Winston’s op-ed “UAW Strike May Hasten Detroit’s Decline” (op-ed, Sept. 22) is further evidence that energy-transition advocates want to change your behavior. He proffers “an efficient vehicle-miles-traveled tax,” wherein the government could “reduce driving, especially during peak periods,” as a more efficient means to cut emissions. This would require the government to track vehicles and tax their owners for driving at the wrong time or place and for fueling or charging your soon-to-be-mandated EV at the wrong time.
