The Morning Report — 12/30/24
The accomplished actress of stage and screen (big and small) leaves the world a better place for her artistic contributions that helped enrich our culture. I have no idea what her politics were, but that said she should be admired for keeping it to herself. Insofar as I cannot recall anything she said or posted that would put her among the usual braindead fools of the entertainment industry, that's good enough for me that I can mention her passing without the need for snark or quoting some horrid opinion she might have had in the past. And so, while "Alice" may not live here anymore, sadly MALICE still has much of the world by the throat as we prepare to ring out 2024. And one of Malice's greatest exponents has finally, and mercifully, at the age of 100, drawn his last breath. I am of course speaking about Jimmy Carter, ex-president, founder of Habitat for Humanity and a legacy as an Habitué of Inhumanity, both here and to a very large extent around the world, particularly in the middle east.
The curtain has finally come down on one of the longest acts in American history: after lingering in hospice care for nearly two years, Jimmy Carter is dead at the age of 100. Now, as we all learned in Latin class, de mortuis nisi bonum, that is, only say good things about the dead, and by most accounts, Jimmy Carter was a decent fellow who tried to do the right thing by his lights. There is no Latin maxim, however, about not speaking ill of a dead president’s time in the Oval Office, and on that score, a great deal can and should be said about Jimmy Carter. Although Carter was the longest-lived president of the United States ever, it is a shame that he didn’t live even longer. The second Trump administration promises to put an end to the long, slow decline of the United States and the now well-established habit of betraying our allies that Carter did so much to initiate, and it’s too bad that Carter won’t be around to witness America’s resurgence — if, that is, the late president’s friends and ideological kin don’t manage to block any such rebound.I have an outstanding 10-part series from IBD editorials about Carter's legacy that was published back in 2007, during the run up to as the lamented Rush Limbaugh of blessed memory called it "the Immaculation" of Barack Obama, to counter the the campaign to slime Dubya as the worst president in US history. IBD no longer exists, as it is now Issues & Insights but the editorial is no longer available. I have a PDF that I shall try and post in the sidebar or otherwise make available to anyone who wants to download it. In the sidebar and linked here! It's entitled "Profile In Incompetence, A 10-Part Series on the Worst President in American History." You can find it posted in excerpts here and there, on some websites that we try to avoid as you will likely discover. Here are the intros to each section for a nice taste.
. . . As president, Jimmy Carter was as sanctimonious as he was inept. America is still paying the price for the damage he wrought during his presidency. It is a shame that he will not see efforts to reverse the effects of his disastrous legacy.
Part 1: So Jimmy Carter calls the Bush administration "the worst in history." This from the man who wrecked the world's greatest economy and made a nuclear Iran and North Korea possible.
Part 2: When it comes to economic performance, there's no contest: Apart from the early years of the Depression, Jimmy Carter's brief tenure as president was the worst in the 20th century. Part 3: After being told over and over by President Jimmy Carter that America's ability to influence world events was "very limited," the Soviet Union believed him and invaded Afghanistan. And al-Qaida was born. Part 4: In the name of human rights, Jimmy Carter gave rise to one of the worst rights violators in history — the Ayatollah Khomeini. And now Khomeini's successor is preparing for nuclear war with Israel and the West. Part 5: resident Jimmy Carter's watch, more territory was lost to tyranny than at any other time since Yalta. And he'd have us return to those thrilling days of yesteryear. Parat 6: When men of strength are presented with difficult problems, their responses are firm and decisive. Jimmy Carter spent four years as president of the United States responding with weakness.
Part 7: In foreign policy, Jimmy Carter proved his presidency the worst ever by subordinating U.S. interests to his vague "human rights" policy. All he did was enable dictators to take him to the cleaners. Part 8: It's often asserted that while Jimmy Carter's presidency was marred by error and incompetence, the peace deal he brokered at Camp David was an unmitigated triumph. Time to pop that bubble, too. Part 9: Of all the errors Jimmy Carter committed, none has earned him more well-justified scorn than his handling of the 1970s energy crisis. True enough, he didn't cause it. But he did make it much, much worse. Part 10: n 1976, Americans thought they were sending an outsider to the White House. Today, the same policies so thoroughly discredited by Jimmy Carter's disastrous presidency define the Democratic Party.
In light of that last sentence, I give you this:
It took a brutal electoral beating, but non-delusional Democrats are finally recognizing the putrid stink coming off their party. But will the left let them do anything about it? In an interview with The New York Times’ Frank Bruni, former Pete Buttigieg adviser Lis Smith, a veteran of New York politics, put it vividly: “The Democratic brand is in the toilet.” Yes: Between the obsessive demonization of President-elect Trump and his supporters, the rank incompetence of the Biden administration and the constant push toward race-and-gender-war lunacy, Democrats have transformed their party into a soup of hazardous sludge. Americans now associate Dems with high crime, high prices, migrant gangs taking over cities and biological men in women’s sports — which has about as much appeal as expired milk. Yet the trouncing of Kamala Harris proved that their favorite distraction tactic — screaming “Trump is Hitler” and his supporters are vile rubes — is a massive dud. As lefty Timesman Ezra Klein put it on his podcast to a listener complaining that he platforms Trump allies, The Donald “has been elected or almost elected president three times now,” so “Don’t expect this show to be a resistance show.” The Democrats’ way back starts with a return to common sense. One such leader is Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), who spent the last year loudly supporting Israel and denouncing the Hamas-lovers; back in June, the lifelong man of the left announced he no longer claimed to be a “progressive,” saying “that label left me.” He made it clear after Trump’s win that he’s “not rooting against” the incoming administration and told his hysterical fellow Democrats to “chill out.” Progressive extremism — insane energy policies, inflation-goosing spending sprees, pro-crime “justice reforms,” divisive and hate-fueling “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” nonsense and so on — is now the face of the Democratic Party and will remain so until leading Dems unmistakably reject every bit of it and show they mean it. That likely means actively seeking parts of the Trump agenda they can support in the face of the hard left’s fury. If Democrats don’t move rapidly toward the center, they’re looking at decades in the wilderness.Emphasis mine, because it's not about messaging, not about having fossilized coprolite octogenarians as your political leaders or that Trump is literally Hitler. It's about policies that provably turn the stomachs of normal people – that is those who have been labeled as EVIL. If the Democrats want to win and actually did in fact will have to become the mythical leopard that changes its spots. That is reject and abandon everything they believe in and have done for the past 200-plus years in their quest for absolute power and control. That and beg our forgiveness. Plus WE THE PEOPLE demand REPARATIONS!!!!! It's why when the estimable Robert Spencer states about Carter "by most accounts, Jimmy Carter was a decent fellow who tried to do the right thing by his lights." I cannot disagree strenuously enough. Were he decent he never would've believed nor advocated the things and policies that resulted in rivers of blood and destruction. For me, Carter was an horrendous anti-Semite and did everything he could to dismantle the State of Israel. In later years, he wrote one of the most notorious anti-israel screeds of all time entitled "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid" which lefty Jew-haters masturbated over for years. And no doubt still do. For that alone, he should be consigned to the infernal reaches. Lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know. Have a great weekend!

Morning, J.J.
Democrat messaging about "moving to the center" will only work if the GOPe makes a ton of blunders during the next 8 years.
In other words, I believe Democrat messaging is going to work again. How soon the message works is the real question.

Pontiff gets a robust history lesson on the Jewishness of Jesus.
The Pope is trying the "Buddy Jesus" route and hoping that being loving and accepting of everyone without judgement is going to make the world better.
That works great in fiction and nothing else.

As former POTUS: a moralizing scold that never met an anti-American despot he didn't like.

"If Democrats don’t move rapidly toward the center, they’re looking at decades in the wilderness."
From my contact with my few remaining Dem friends/associates I don't see that as possible. And these are relatively moderate Dems as they still are willing to talk to me.

I'm looking forward to PDT 2.0. I think PDT is poised to open a multi front war against the Deep State.
Between DOGE killing the monstrous CR, H1-B being discussed, Kennedy and MAHA, Kash and Hegseth, the Deep State appears to be having the tactics they used against PDT in 2016 turned back on them.
And I doubt the OODA loop of the Deep State will be able to deal with it.

I heard a talking-head say something to the effect that Jimmah's Presidency was "marred by the Iranian hostage crisis." As if he were simply an innocent bystander, rather than the guy that completely screwed-the-pooch. I'm old enough to remember seeing President Reagan being told during the inauguration, that the Iranians had released the hostages.
The Democrats were so butt-hurt that they tried to accuse Reagan of conspiring with the Iranians.

Jimmy Carter was a nasty piece of work, one of the charter founders (along with the viper Jody Powell) of "war-room" politics.
As an aside, as a cub reporter covering the 1980 New Hampshire primary for a small radio station, I interviewed Chip Carter. Of all the political figures I interviewed, no one had as foul a mouth. The invectives he spewed about Reagan were hard for me to believe.

“Posse Comitatus” the interpretation of the constitution that holds US troops can be deployed on the other side of the world to guard borders and defend against invasion..
Though naturally it follows, it would be unconstitutional to protect US borders. I mean, it makes perfect sense if you think about it. I have a grudging respect of the effectiveness of the mind-fvckery they have been able to inculcate.

RIP Linda Lavin. That leaves Polly Holiday as the only surviving cast member of the original Alice series. I don't know her politics either, although many early episodes of the show were definitely meant to support lefty causes: the ghey, guns bad, unions good, etc. I do remember reading about her diva personality off the set, and how she was cold to both Polly Holiday and Diane Ladd. 'Flo' especially because she garnered a lot of fan support that left Lavin feeling like just another cast member, instead of the headliner of the show. I still have Alice on DVD and watch it often because I don't watch any modern tv shows.

You really didn't know what you wanted for Christmas until you opened up the Sears and JC Penney Gift catalogs each Fall.
Its a principle of Mimetic Theory that most people don't know what they want and their desires originate from Influencers. Trump, Musk, Vivek et al are Influencers who are flipping through the Christmas catalog of things that inspire us and shape our desires.
When the Deep State counters with their usual evil, we have a wider sense of the Goodness that is available.
I don't think any kid really anticipated getting everything in the catalog under the tree.

"Is Joe Biden Saving His Worst Decisions for His Last Day In Office?"
Does Joe think he's the best POTUS, ever?
Only Beelzebub knows how much Joe will degrade the Presidency in the next 21 days. Presidential Medals of Freedom handed out like candy? To Jill, Mop Top, Kamala, perhaps Beau posthumously, and maybe Hunter? Pardons also handed out like candy? To Democrat politicians along with dozens and dozens of corrupt DoJ prosecutors and DeepState scum?

Also, I once met Linda Lavin, well, we didn't actually introduce ourselves, but - I was on a shoot, just me on a Saturday morning in Hollywood. My job was to get footage of a client's billboard from different angles. I was loading up when approached by a cop, and I'm like "oh crap! I don't have a permit to be filming in public or nuthin!" But the cop says "better wrap it up, the parade has started" as he points down the road (Santa Monica Blvd) and I see it, a quarter mile away, a large group of people marching and carrying signs and stuff. So, I'm heading back to the freeway and notice I'm right by Pinks Hot Dogs, and despite it being only about 11 AM figure I might as well get an early lunch before heading back to Irvine to unload the gear and drop off the tapes. I get a my food and notice Alice herself was behind me, looking at the menu and getting ready to order. I says "Hey! I like your work!" She says thank you, and I go sit down to eat. As I'm leaving I see her sitting with her tray of food: two chili dogs, fries and a large drink.

Carter nominated “Tall Paul” Volcker, the Fed reserve chief who raised the overnight bank to bank lending rate to each other to 18 per cent. Tough medicine but they had no choice if they wanted to save the dollar. It’s always this way, either save the markets, or save the dollar. They can’t do both.
Raising interest rates - This is something that can never, ever happen again. They painted themselves in a corner decades ago.

I think "DEI" gets the blame for a rot that set in years and years ago - the death of competence and accountability. DEI is fun to blame, because of course it's flagrant and in your face with its creepy racist phobia of competence and accountability, but there's a weird and pervasive silent cult of pseudopsychology, which claims accountability is dangerous and competence is measured more by who you are than what you do, that set in long before Critical Everything Theory was a glimmer in Derek Bell's eye. There's also a cultural disdain for anything that isn't "laptop work". Better to generate a thousand spreadsheets and a million zoom meeting invites than make one actual thing that actually works.
I blame all that for Boeing's failures, and the general decline in Actual Stuff that's been going on for ages.
Now get off my lawn.

My political consciousness began under Carter. Carter was a weasel of the first order. I even worked on Ted Kennedy's primary campaign to unseat him. My first vote ever was for Reagan, and I'll never forget the thrill of his win and his first press conference as he batted the media around. I remember thinking, now we have a president.

Jimmy claimed to be a Christian. I believe that to be a lie, because a true Christian has an understanding of the Bible and its teachings. As such, Jimmy should have had a much better grasp of the world and people than he did.
In other words, Jimmy should have known better if he truly understood the Bible.
His actions tell us otherwise.

In other words, Jimmy should have known better if he truly understood the Bible.
Go back to Genesis and read about Joseph's handling of the Egyptian economy. Joseph is pretty much what every tyrannical dictator aspires to, but is hailed by all Bible Believers as a great and wonderful person.
In short: Joseph had the best insider information on the economy for the next 14 years. He plundered during the years of plenty and then sold back what he took to the citizens, using the famine to extort their land, their livestock and eventually their freedom as he extorted everything and reduced them all to slavery.
But he was a great guy who loved God.

I'm not exactly religious, but it always seemed to me that part of being a Christian is understanding that you, as a person, will never measure up to the Jewish people.
If you could, you wouldn't need Jesus to bring you to The Father.
Jesus is offering you his place, because you don't otherwise have one.
But, I could be way off.

I had an interesting observation this holiday. I went to two places each for 4 days. One was kinda mid tier.Not a dump or anything just kinda basic. The other was high end.
At the mid tier place 50% or more of the guests were Indian. At the high end virtually none.
Which is interesting given Indians have the highest income level in the US. Or close to the top. They're also cheap a shit and hate spending money.
Found it kinda funny.

The crew came in too hot for the configuration using the higher calculated approach and landing speeds for a zero flap/slat landing and floated way down the runway before touching down. The speed numbers for a zero flap/slats landing are predicated upon a clean wing and the landing gear being down (obviously).
narrators voice: "but the landing gear was not down."

It was noted that the Korean airliner that crashed was traveling at a high speed, faster than normal landing and much faster than in an emergency. It also had no flaps down or gear (likely as a result of hydraulic failure or neglect) and "touched down" about half-way down the runway.
There's no possible way, given those conditions, it would have stopped before the end of the runway.

Maybe you should ask yourself why you see God as a plush toy?

I'm not exactly religious, but it always seemed to me that part of being a Christian is understanding that you, as a person, will never measure up to the Jewish people.
If you could, you wouldn't need Jesus to bring you to The Father.

That theory would make more sense had Jesus not been a Jew Himself.

Carter never would have been president but for the Watergate mess. Chappaquiddick probably had something to do with it as well.
It got us the Ayatollah, Iranian hostage crisis and a lot of sanctimony from Jimmy.
It then got us Reagan, so I "guess" we can thank Jimmy for that.

I read somewhere once, long ago, probably on the internet so it must be true, that the Shah of Iran was planning on building a seaport outside the Straits of Hormuz so as to eliminate being blockaded there. Carter caught wind of the plan and tried to impose some cronies of his into the construction project. The Shah said fuck off, and Carter retaliated by abandoning him to the revolution.

I was surprised by the number of tattoos I saw on women, and these were not biker chicks or trailer trash. Young, prosperous mothers and professionals. Completely tatted up.

Cloth isn't really a problem at the right light frequencies. Heck, even cheap night vision deer cameras can make people in exercise attire appear nude.

Jesus, being Jewish, already has The Father's favor.
Since a Christian cannot gain His favor on their own, they can only get it through Jesus.
But again, I'm not very religious, mainly because I have issues with the whole "Father" thing I don't know if I'll ever be able to get over.

Carter was insufferably smug and sanctimonious and always thought he was the smartest guy in the room. And while his post-presidency charitable work was admirable he brought that same attitude to his presidency and demanded the US be the conscience of the world. The problem was it was his guilty conscience that he projected on all of us. His policies on everything including canceling the Olympics were disastrous for the US and the world.
Still, I never got the feeling he hated the US the way Obama and Biden and this crew do. He was egotistical and incompetent. This crew took that and added evil.

I'm all for getting a deal and I don't spend money foolishly, for the most part. But at some point the law of diminishing returns kicks in. Will I spend 10 hours negotiating to get an extra $100 off? No. Because my time.is worth more than $10 an hour.
And also is spending an extra $100 a night for a hotel room with the extra convenience and/or view or whatever it comes with? Yeah usually. What's the point of earning money if all you do is save it?
Like most things there's the happy middle. Spend wisely but also enjoy life.

The other key is taking back Academia!

When China collapses and the current lap-top class can't find a replacement charge cord, this country is going to need a lot of technicians, programmers, machinists and tool & die makers to support the automation industry.
We already have too many foreigners who are have PhDs in manipulating AI datasets with Python and Tensor.

Posted by: Jonah at December 30, 2024 08:57 AM (YCxFk)
It’s instructive to look at Democrat Presidents since WW2. Truman was from the Midwest and of course only got the job due to FDR’s death. LBJ was seen as a southern conservative Democrat who was rejected when it became obvious he wasn’t. Carter followed the same trajectory. Clinton was the last try for the “southern democrat” line, and he was clever and charming enough to pull it off for his 8 years. After that, Bush was so deep state that it left room for Obama to run his urban-academic-far left-single women mix, and Dems thought they had hit on the formula that would give them power forever.
But DEI is burning out, as is the Obama coalition. It just didn’t work, and it never delivered on its promises. Trump’s turn to reset things completely now.

The Guardian: Biden reportedly regrets ending re-election campaign and says he'd have defeated Trump.
He was running on a strong pro workers platform. The large donors retaliated, and the press ganged up on him largely in response to his dedication to that agenda. I agree with the president.
Harris' campaign was very different from the one he had started. If she kept his entire campaign message, she would have won.
her whole campaign was trying to be too careful. How hard would it be to say "this admin is wrong on Gaza and right about workers rights?" And then run non stop on both issues.
He was 20 points behind in the polls after the debate! Harris was even or slightly ahead in most polls during her short campaign.
I hope this is being misrepresented. It's something he has the right to feel, but not what needs to be said publicly. Especially considering all the voter suppression and election irregularities that seem to be neglected.
if Biden had been on his game for first debate, he would have shut up his critics and won the presidency.
Biden contacting Covid in late summer toke a huge toll on him IMHO...
He was running on a strong pro workers platform. The large donors retaliated, and the press ganged up on him largely in response to his dedication to that agenda. I agree with the president.
Harris' campaign was very different from the one he had started. If she kept his entire campaign message, she would have won.
her whole campaign was trying to be too careful. How hard would it be to say "this admin is wrong on Gaza and right about workers rights?" And then run non stop on both issues.
He was 20 points behind in the polls after the debate! Harris was even or slightly ahead in most polls during her short campaign.
I hope this is being misrepresented. It's something he has the right to feel, but not what needs to be said publicly. Especially considering all the voter suppression and election irregularities that seem to be neglected.

My grandma was a die hard Democrat and voted for Carter. I have the campaign button she got. It's holographic. She wasn't fond of his presidency and said "he's a decent man but an awful president".
She voted for Reagan.

>>I always wondered why Carter, a Baptist, favored the Palestinians over the Jews. Puzzling. All the Baptists I have known are very pro-Israel.
His Christianity was a pose, in his heart, Carter was a leftist f**kstick, anti-American deuschecanoe.
The fact that we had to put up with that retards blatherings for going on 50 years post Presidency was nauseating.

>>True, but Carter was also an early adopter of virulent Jew-hate, which manifested as being anti-Israel in every aspect of his foreign policy during his presidency, and his "humanitarian" blather post-presidency.
Don't get me wrong, I despised him. And I think his Jew hate came from a different place than his church. He was a legacy of the southern Democrat Party and very proud of his rural, southern roots.
I just believe he wasn't as virulently anti-American as Obama/Biden.

I think Carter ushered in the concept of having staff make administrative decisions that he was unable to. It's been a standard policy behind every administration since. It explains a lot about how our government and the deep state operate... especially day to day.
The more sinister stuff is a bit different, but I think it's still a bunch of unelected bureaucrats behind the scenes making the decisions.

It's very, very rarely about ideology when it comes to politicians.
It's about greed, and the opportunity for graft.

>>Do we know the name of the Burning Woman of NY yet?
She's still unidentified.
Investigators believe she was homeless and since she was burned beyond recognition, identifying her has been problematic.

Happy Monday!
Ah, what is there to say about Jimmy Carter?
A family member of mine spent a gap year at Habitat for Humanity in Americas, GA building homes. During that time there was a celebrity build of several homes, my relative was in charge of one of the homes. Carter made it clear to him that he would NOT work on the same home as Jane Fonda (this was back when she was married to Turner, Living in Georgia). Jimmy and Rosalin arrived, each with their own specialty. Jimmy's was setting windows, which he did expertly (this was what he did on any home he helped build). My relative enjoyed the day with Jimmy in a non-political, positive setting.
So there -- I can say two nice things about Jimmy: He would not tolerate Hanoi Jane and he as a master at setting windows!

“That hardly is a crime in the United States,” Raskin said about Cheney’s secret collaboration with Hutchinson. “In any event, she’s completely protected by the Speech and (sic) Debate Clause, which protects all of us in our legislative capacities both in terms of our direct legislative action and in doing the investigative research that needs to be done in order to legislate and to act as legislators in a comprehensive way.”
Raskin said “They’ve been talking about going after Liz Cheney simply for doing her legislative work in a way that is completely covered by the Speech and (sic) Debate Clause.”
The day after the Mar-a-Lago raid in August 2022, FBI agents seized the cell phone of Rep. Scott Perry, who was traveling with his family at the time.
Perry invoked the Speech or Debate Clause in asking a D.C. judge to prevent the DOJ from obtaining roughly 2,000 messages and emails the Pennsylvania congressman said were related to official legislative business, namely, the certification of the 2020 election. But Beryl Howell, the former chief judge of the D.C. district court and unabashed Trump-hating partisan, denied almost all of Perry’s claims.

18 members of the Congressional Black Caucus, along with Rep. Rashida Tlaib and two other non-black members, signed a letter asking Biden to exonerate America’s first black Klansman.
The letter does not mention that Marcus Garvey had allied with the KKK, admired Hitler, told his followers to read Mein Kampf and declared, “what the Negro needs is a Hitler.”
It also does not mention that Garvey had himself in mind for the job, that the self-proclaimed “Provisional President of Africa” wore imaginary military uniforms and sent his thugs to beat up black civil rights leaders before being expelled in disgrace after defrauding his followers.
Or that the charges of mail fraud that 21 House Democrats want to exonerate Garvey from were brought at the urging of black civil rights leaders of the day who demanded federal intervention.

DailyMail:
Shell-shocked Democrats are considering dropping labels like 'progressive' or even ditching the party altogether after they got shellacked by Donald Trump in November.
After a left-leaning campaign by Vice President Kamala Harris delivered lackluster results, some Dems believe they should drop polarizing positions and run as independents as the party veers away from working class values.
'The Democratic brand is in the toilet,' Lis Smith, former senior advisor to Pete Buttigieg's 2020 campaign, told the New York Times.

'Many of the Democrats who succeeded this cycle - our best over-performers in House races, for instance - are people who ran against the Democratic Party brand,' she continued.
'Trump tore down the blue wall in the industrial Midwest, but he also expanded his vote the most in our bluest and most urban areas.'

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) and PA Gov. Josh Shapiro may be in disagreement over issues at times, but those two are going to be instrumental in redefining the Democratic progressive, working peoples) party & doing it in reordbreaking time.

back in January (18th) of 2024, still appears to be an accurate representation.

Guess it depends on the location... most of the inventory at the Habitat store near me should have gone straight to landfill, and the usable stuff isn't any cheaper than big box stores.

Tata -- in addition to Alten and Segula -- is a company that also is used by American companies, specifically the auto industry, to outsource engineering work to India and Mexico. Which are deemed BCC (Best Cost Country).
The thousands of engineering layoffs across Ford, GM and Stellantis over the past 3 years since the Plandemic have been backfilled through these companies with BCC cheap "engineers" from India and Mexico, and people from India living in Canada (mostly Toronto).
All the companies put out statements lying that they needed to cut headcount, because of the transition to EVs. But they were only cutting cost. Cutting American engineers making $100k, replacing them with BCC "engineers" in foreign countries making $30-$50k. Cutting good efficient engineers with experience and expertise and passion for their jobs and replacing them with low-skill, little-experience/expertise "engineers" who know little to nothing about auto manufacturing industry.
