Please don't give the Dims ideas.
So what becomes of the workers and the UAW?
Evidently we need to quit education our enemies.
No DEI in those factories.
The UAW has many employees but very few workers.
I think I see the problem.
Ford CEO admits American cars suck and cost too much. Maybe they should do something about it.
China has a rapidly aging and falling population. Plug that fact into your rubric
An odd mixture of automation and child/slave labor. Which is more cost-effective?
“Guns, Germs, and Steel.”
Their cost and the quality of their vehicles is far superior to what I see in the West,”
The Chinese car makers don’t have a government chocking them with stupid regulations or giimme dat unions
My first thought too.
The Pubbies are setting us up for that dystopia just as much as the Dems are.
I would be suspicious of anything regarding anybody visiting anything in China. It’s a communist country. Nothing happens without the party, knowing about it and having a hand in it.
Charles Lindberg visited Nazi Germany before World War II, and was absolutely astonished and humbled by what they showed him. He went to German airfield after German airfield, and saw hundreds and hundreds of modern gleaming new planes parked wing tip to wing tip. He thought there was no way that we could beat Nazi Germany, not with the current state of aviation in the United States.
What he did not know, though, was that the Nazis were flying him from Fairfield to airfield, and getting the planes there before each airfield so he was seeing more than they had.
In the states, this category of unemployed or under-employed worker is probably going to usher in a long trial period of Universal Income. Unfortunately. And once such a program like that is begun, the majority will very quickly become dependent on it’s continuation and scheduled enhancement.
I will be fully retired by then, so I won’t be terribly effected personally either way, but for those of prime working age, it’s going to be hard to remain ambitious and self motivated, if the AI job stealing predictions become anywhere near true.
….and yet, zillions of Chinese students have zero interest in working there.
Talk to an actual person from China, here in America. You’ll realize these “American executives “ are either plants or milquetoast losers.
Indeed, this article reads like the same kind of propaganda we got in the 80s, about the superiority of the Soviets.
Ping to my rely below yours.
Agreed.
If they’re so advanced in these areas, I don’t understand why so many Chinese consumer products are so poorly made and unsatisfactory.
