I'm gunna say the "bailout" this time is a buyout by billionaires that have cash reserves and foreign nationals with money.

I am still laughing at how fucked this all is like we are watching a movie but as much as I am enjoying the FAFO, we are in for some serious shit shortly.

From what I understand, the union leadership said something like don't worry this'll make more jobs...
Hypothetically while paying to play golf with Trump... I mean meet with him

I seriously want to know what Trump promised the head of UAW. An endless supply of Trump steaks?

They have 149 days of stock. People haven’t been buying them, because they are overpriced unreliable garbage. They should have slowed production last year.

Yes, it was. The idea is that companies will hate having to do this so instead they will move all capital back into the U.S. so it doesn’t have to cross a border.
It’s a stupid, selfish, twice failed idea but hey… he’s not that bright.

Mexico's president has been warning everyone it will hurt American workers since November. But game console expensive is the news you guys share ...

While I'd agree that many at least slightly selfish average "i don'T carE abouT politicS unleSS iT affectS mE personallY" people do that, I'd argue that many if not most people on Reddit are better then that.

Yeah, a month ago people were sill calling me chicken little for saying concentration camps were next. Here on reddit.
If it was most people, wouldn't someone else be making better decisions than the doggy folks? If you knew a large group of folks who said you were overstating how dangerous one idiot was for 9 years and then he wipes out 5% of his country's value in a few days, wouldn't you want to get people to think about how better choices could really, really help millions of people including themselves?
Well, maybe some folks prefer having a real existential threat to their way of life in charge to having to listen to a dark lady offer them more affordable housing. Concepts of a plan sounds so tempting.

I'm just going to say it my grandfather had a job through the depression because he had gone to trade school for two years and was a draftsman and the sheet metal. There was always a need for this stuff even during the height of the Great depression. I have been retrained and I help autistic adults with job skills. My shop is a nonprofit that has a commercial shredding business on the side to help train our guys. I feel like I might get out of this like my grandpa did. But guys it still feels like whatever happens we're going to get out by the skin of our teeth if that. Keep on keeping on!!

Stellantis is a dead company. They're recording their ninth consecutive quarter of declining sales. I'd be surprised if they still operated in the US in 2 years.

It’s 0.36% of the company they’re laying and temporarily shutting down a couple of plants for 2 weeks.

Oh wow I’m shocked. Attempting an insular economy with a population of only 340 million in a world of 8 billion is going to be a problem for demand. Add to that the tiny economy of the us already is established and doesn’t need that much new stuff and now no one wants your stuff in the economies that are in a high consumption phase. If only you could have learned this somewhere. I wish there was a place that could teach these things so we could all be smarter but alas it’s impossible oh well I’ll go back to shooting this glass bottle off my neighbours fence.
