Plant Closings, Job Cuts Loom at Ford
Ford has given us such gas guzzling behemoths as the Expedition, the Explorer and the Excursion. It has given us cars with exploding tires and god knows what else. It has played a part with other auto manufacturers and the repiglican -lite Clinton administration, of accelerating emissions and accelerating fossil fuel use.
But, by god, if they won't stay in business and invest to retool their own factories, because their friends in the energy industry are pushing the price per gallon up so fast they can't sell their giant tonka toys anymore, and because they see their responsibility as being to their stockholders rather than to their workers and the communities in which they do business, corporate ass licking government officials will happily pay them, by reducing their taxes even further, to stay in business and exploit Americans even further.
Anyone who can't see the plutocracy is an unmitigated idiot.
Fuck Ford.
If they don't want to employ people here then they shouldn't be selling their junk here.
It is really that easy.
