Trump effectively owes his election to the promise of bringing factories and manufacturing jobs back to the United States. His relentless, targeted attacks against the ‘Big 3’ U.S. auto manufacturers for outsourcing jobs to Mexico was undoubtedly a key reason that he was able to shock the world and win Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio and Pennsylvania…an accomplishment which has eluded Republicans since Ronald Reagan.
Unfortunately, while factories may once again be making a comeback in the United States, after chasing low wages all around the globe for decades, they’re unlikely to bring the jobs with them. As a new study from McKinsey highlights, if a new factory opens up in the United States you can bet it’s only because most of the jobs that used to be performed by humans have since been automated. Per Bloomberg: Continue reading “Factories May Be Coming Back To The U.S., But The Jobs Aren’t: McKinsey”

GREENWASHING Alert: Artificial meat is positioned as “saving the planet” but it’s almost all made from the very same GMOs and toxic herbicides and pesticides that are killing the planet.
While I’m a strong opponent of the cruel and inhumane treatment of animals in CAFOs and confined meat factories, the greenwashing of the artificial meat propagandists needs to be exposed, too.

Instead of taking a paycheck to violate rights, some police officers in Louisiana had the dignity to quit. But most of the local media is saying that there will now be “turmoil” since there’s only a small weak crew left in the Town of Slaughter.

The name of the book/movie mentioned the yesterday is called the Milagro Beanfield War by John Nichols, it takes place in my state of New Mexico and is a comedy, but also puts a great deal of truth about the corruption in this state about water rights and choking out the farmers to make room for the ranchers and tourist tycoons.

The war on terror just keeps getting more and more ridiculous every year. Nothing says BS, quite like spending taxpayer dollars on Homeland security sirens designed to scare everyone.
DHS is giving fire departments hundreds of thousands of dollars to install fear-inducing sirens across the country.
The program is called the ‘Homeland Security Grant Program Warning Sirens Project’ or the ‘Hazard Mitigation Grant Program’ (HMGP).

A group of people became the first in America to receive gender-neutral driver’s licenses on Tuesday in the nation’s capital, CNN reports. They prefer “X” as their gender marker instead of male or female because they identify as gender fluid, gender non-conforming, agender, or another category.
