While, I agree that this type of work can affect you....

So you’re saying we don’t produce things, and the manufacturing sector isn’t growing?

It’s also getting more efficient and producing much more per person. Just because other sectors of the economy were created or have grown doesn’t mean manufacturing is non-existent.

Why work at/on Mortal Kombat if you cant handle gore?

Quite simple : Japan is very bad at producing clean energy, and since the Fukushima incident, their main objective was to get rid of the nuclear plants as soon as possible. This meant it would not only make it even worse from an environmental point of view, but also created uncertainties concerning the ability to…

But hey, let’s go back to overpaying for shitty goods just so that we can subsidize “blue collar” workers in outdated fields. That’s a great idea...

It isn’t that “China pays the tariff”. The theory is that if you increase the cost to American consumers and manufacturers of foreign goods that those customers will buy a similar good from an American company because it will be cheaper or cost the same. It makes American JOBS!

Fuel Cells are DOA. They have no future in cars with current technology.

We don’t produce things. America doesn’t make stuff anymore. The economy shifted 3o years ago and it’s not coming back.

It’s not that creating highways instantly made living in the suburbs more desirable, it made it possible.

You people fundamentally don’t grasp the concept of demand.

Let’s talk to the white elephant in the room. A huge problem across the country is traffic congestion. During the past two decades traffic got worst every year with no end in sight.

A higher number of smaller vehicles to call the same amount of goods will ease pollution and congestion?

Doesn’t this inevitable create technocratic urban centers with massively high housing costs?

Right. If I want to get on the surface streets in New Orleans under I10, I have the option. I just don’t see a version of Canal Street replacing the elevated highway.

Watch Vox

Oh good. A video from Vox won’t have any bias at all. 

I'm with you. I didn't like this post. While I know some found it entertaining, it felt mean-spirited to me.
