What’s your solution then? What do you think should be done now to offer more jobs to people in communities with high rates of unemployment?

ell oh ell.

At around $12 an hour, 40 hours a week, full-time jobs pay higher than many others in the region, and the benefits are also better than many other jobs in the industry. But workers are required to be on their feet all day, and receive scant time for bathroom breaks or lunch. They’re pressured to meet certain…

Come at me, but this “emotional support animal” is bullshit. If you need help with flight anxiety, take a tranquilizer or booze, like a normal sane person. Animals - no exceptions, dogs, cats, whatever! - have no business inside a passengers cabin.

Typically, it’s not a great idea to take infrastructure inspiration from a county that’s bankrupt.

I don’t really consider those countries to be more or less civilized . High speed rail doesn’t work in this country because the distances are much greater than in Europe.

Um... Painted sheet metal?

Alcantara is absolute garbage. I don’t want to hear about how it “enhances grip”, etc. It is disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. Go on ebay and search for BMW e46 M3 steering wheels, and reel in horror when you stumble upon an alcantara one.

And what’s wrong with playing devil’s advocate,generally speaking? It gives an opportunity for actual discussion instead of a circle jerk of agreement.

They’ve been cut some slack. They’ve been cut excessive slack. They’ve been cut more slack than anyone in that industry ever.

What the hell does landing a rocket have to do with mass producing cars? This is the go to any time, anyone criticizes the almighty Musk. No one actually told him it couldn’t be done that is a figment of the Musk fans imagination seeing as it was done over 20 years ago.

He did not found or start TSLA. So the answer is no one?

Yeah, I thought it was cool but didn’t buy one.

The atmosphere in there right now is probably more like this;

Ford kinda tried that with the Tremor (for those of you who aren’t aware of this, I don’t blame you.)
