I suppose they found out that Fields is a supporter of Trump, or was there a rumor sent around that he is.

Next to get canned should be Jeff Immelt of GE, who has driven that company’s stock to the ground.

A bit off topic, but does anyone here remember the Galaxie model that was made by Ford in the 1960s? One vintage car dealership in my locale some years back had a red 1964 one up for sale and it was just a gorgeous looking car. Any opinions on it concerning how it drove, etc?

Ford stock price has not done much for many years. I owned it in 2009 and it more then tripled to nearly $19 from where I bought it. Then it went up and down between $12 and $18 till 2014 when I sold it and bought better stocks and did much better.

Ford is going with a guy who ran their autonomous driving car outfit.

Not good.

On the news this morning all the talk was about how no one will own a car in the cities in the future.

People in the cities won’t own anything.

“The pursuit of happiness” was about working hard to own things.

Will people work hard to use a robot car twice a week?

They sit in the cities and see skyscrapers and subways and roads and see that they are all made by the millions of other people around them.

Man then becomes God.

Man can do anything. We just need the right people. Democrats.

I don’t know if this is a good thing.
