    Well if all they want is their gas cars idk what to say. This isn’t a preference thing, its a get with anything and everything or we all die thing. There won’t be many options, until there are no options.

      It’s more that there needs to be a lot more discussion of the fact that converting to EVs doesn’t mean fewer jobs. So the autoworkers unions don’t need to fight it.

    The workers don’t care about what dildo is installed in your car’s driver’s seat! 🪑💺. They care about having a good paying job, a career, healthcare and a good life. Tail pipe emissions are not necessary for all that to happen.

      Absolutely, but the executives started claiming that EVs would require less labor to manufacture. It’s utter bullshit, but they managed to panic a bunch of the workers.
