Certainly better used there than in the Sequels.

EDIT: someone already beat me to that joke

40% increase over the life of the contract, not in a single year.

4 day workweek means a 5th is OT?

So when the UAW lands a deal with the Big 3 and they pivot to going after Tesla, does he plan on raising pay to match? All of the WSJ and Fox News articles (just search “winner” and “UAW” and “Tesla” to see how the through line has been written) seem to conveniently ignore that Tesla not being UAW today is not a…

Right? The timing for this interaction is super fucking weird.

“Glad we solved all the other shit that was wrong here. {claps and rubs hands together} FLYING TAXI TIME.”

Constrained supply, same demand, price increases wheeeeeee!!!

Technically, its only 8 mill (the rest was stock), but yes, I think most of us could do OK with that :-)

“Barra seemed visibly uncomfortable after the question was asked on CNN,”

Did she? Seemed pretty straightforward and practiced of a response? Those figures she pulled out weren’t just off the top of her head.

The COC is a paid pretty well by GOP PAC money; that they are being used to take a swing at Biden is unsurprising. Its even funnier that as a whole the list of things the GOP can hit Biden over has basically devolved to “your kid sucks”, “you are old” and “why aren’t you getting involved in things we will take you to…

Considering it is spread over the life of the contract and barely covers the inflation over the past one, its just an OK ask. That the OEMs are already at 20% increase after basically only a week of real negotiating tells you that the 40% original request wasn’t too unreasonable.

The market will eat it up, customers will be fucked and the wheel of capitalism will roll on.

I like how he says it like the OEMs haven’t considered it before and then rejected it out of hand because of hundreds of reasons relating to logistics and expense.

These aren’t little plastic army men, they are incredibly complex machines.

Sorry, I was responding to your point that it would end her run; unless she chooses to quit or the Dems drop her from the ballot, her run will be completed on election day like anyone else.

Price should increase a bit but still needs to stay between Traverse and Tahoe; size is larger because that is the whole point of the article and the weight should be negligible overcurrent (trading a V6 for a turbo 4).

Post-Trump, the Overton window has moved a bit. Just need Dems to agree that it is not disqualifying considering GOPers wouldn’t care going the other way.

Reframing is nothing new - in Ohio they are doing an ad with someone saying that only 22% percent of Ohioans think that abortion is fine up until the point the baby is born, which means that there is room for 78% of Ohioans to have a discussion, but putting it in the Constitution means that Ohioans can’t have that…

I’ve had 4 different people in the greys try to “naw actually” when my point was that OP could just google it if they were interested. I doubt Marko was thinking about geographic vs. geopolitical vs. colonial views on the structure of the Americas.
