Wonder if the UAW was involved in this?

FYI...E-cars use fewer parts, meaning manufacturing of car parts...if this trend continued, would lead to fewer jobs (fewer union jobs).

I noticed this comment made four years ago with the German Audi folks. They were figuring 30-to-40 percent fewer car jobs (assembling and parts production) in the end.

Good question.

I met a guy who worked at Lordstown, about 40 or so years ago and I seem to remember Lordstown (GM) has a history of employee purchase to keep jobs.

I vaguely remember Lordstown was (at the time) into electric harnesses.

This is a memory many years old so I could be 100% MISTAKEN.

UAW? I wonder what percentage was “skimmed”. We’re talking the Youngstown area, after all.

Remember Solyndra?? These “elites” are sucking us dry. And people keep getting suckered into supporting them by being brainwashed to believe that they are being virtuous. Virtue is the habit of doing good. Goodness comes from God Almighty, not from sinful man. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
