Fuck OBAMA !!! : Help wanted: Automakers have trouble filling all the jobs
 

... he probably is keeping the potential workers locked up in the basement of the WH ... What this guy would do to sink the economy is endless... Vendzilla was right ..... fucking illegals will have to take those as well ....

Help wanted: Automakers have trouble filling all the jobs

Damn bailout ....

i support Obama !!!

that doesnt sound right...no one wanted a job...perhaps no one knew

Well let me just rush out and get my engineering degree and move to downtown detroit.

Have you been to local school and looked at the kids who are in engineering? I'll tell you less then 10% are American and I'm being generous as the rest are foreign.

Also, have you looked at Industrial Designers they are mainly men, so nobody is designing cars for women.

Detroit still has a lot to learn and a lot of opportunities.

One more point for those that want to listen, California with http://www.artcenter.edu/accd/contact.jsp is gaining on Detroit when it comes to design. Look at Hyundai Kia America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI) located at Irvine, California for some of the most innovative designs.

If you read the post, you will see other cities mentioned ....

Wait, so how is this Obamas fault? The car companies have recovered and are hiring... How is this bad?

sarcasm detector broken...

American made products suck anyways

Where? in India or China?

The problem was we moved away from manufacturing for so long that's why there are alot less engineers here and alot more in the countries were manufacturing has been important. It comes back, you will see more.
I go to a diner and I was talking to the waiter an older guy. He was talking to me about all the places he had been for business. So I asked him what did you do? He said part mold engineering and that once that chinese did it for 5 percent of what it use to cost. There were no more jobs for him here so now he is waiter.

also in china and india college cost close to nothing so you arent sitting on a huge amount of debt out the door.

I wonder exactly how much influence the President has on such issues. And with any president, they are quick to avoid blame and quick to claim responsibility when things go right.

You know, I keep hearing that and I'm just not seeing it. I've had 13 new Fords in the past twenty years and never had a problem with them. I mean, not once did I have to bring a car back after buying it because something broke or wasn't working right. I'm not saying that American cars are great, but I'm just not seeing the problem. Seems to me American cars are ranking higher in quality over the past ten years than other cars.

Well, on the auto industry sector, I do not think you can debate much this outcome following the gop critisized "bailout" :2 cents::2 cents:

:Oh crap

once apon a time they did blow a long time ago during the late 70's early 80's and the Japanese came in and kicked our ass. I started with gm in 85 and had to sit thru a week of ass numbing quality classes.

ive had since 2001 two fords and a hhr. All the cars have been well made and gave no trouble. The sable had 130k on it when I traded it in, it was fine I was bored with it. I miss that car now lol.

The bailout helped Detroit a lot. But other than that, yeah, it's mostly about timing.


American made cars really sucked in the 70's and 80's. Nevertheless, it took a long time for the American public to turn their backs on on the big three and start buying Japanese in large numbers.

Now that Detroit's products have actually been quite decent for awhile, it'll still take a long time to win back most of those lost customers.

People have long memories when it comes to this sort of thing.

This is not proof that the bailout worked. How come the companies that did not receive bailouts are hiring? This is proof that the recovery took much longer than it should of because of horrible policies of Bush and Obama.

The idea that the government can take money from the tax payers and give it to a company is horseshit and should not happen. Those companies that did not get bailed out got fucked. Their sales would be record sales and would actually be hiring even more people than they are now and the recovery would have been much faster.

On another note: World largest solar plant that was funded with 2.1 billion dollars of US tax payer money goes bankrupt. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/worlds...les-bankruptcy

gotta compete with the wily japanese

The auto bailout was actually quite effective because it was specifically targeted to an industry that wasn't quite dead (yet) and one that employs large numbers of American citizens.

The bulk of the bailout, meanwhile, were utterly wasted on the same big banks and Wall Street entities that deep-sixed the economy in the first place :(

We're talking apples and oranges here.


Without the auto bailout, the big three would most likely have been purchased by the Chinese... or they'd have simply gone down altogether.

Fiat's purchase of Chrysler pretty much saved them. I watched a segment on 60 Minutes about that whole thing and it was really impressive to see how they took the quality of the US cars and the business acumen of the Fiat company and made it work.

With the merger, Chrysler now has one of the most impressive line of cars.

I would support an auto industry bailout later if ever needed again based on how well they handled the money and paid it back. I wish I could say the same for the banks.

There are plenty of engineers and machinists, etc in the U.S. - if anything, there's a glut of them ...

The real problem is the pay is way too low. Wages for many occupations, such as machinist, assembly-line worker, etc have been slashed to around 1/2 of what they were just a decade or so ago...

Many employers requiring such workers, instead of paying a fair, living wage, claim there's a shortage to justify bringing in off-shore workers / getting government subsidies.

As useuall, the I hate Obama guys are clueless to the facts
