It irks me to no end. How the civilian facing side of Government is neglected. TSA, USPS, ICE, etc, things that we actually interact with. Funny how people think the USPS is supposed to "make money" by slashing benefits and pay, for the government servants. Treat them like crap. All the...

Champ Labs is not union(but they should have been) that is why. FRAM was union, and I support that. However Illinois has a 15/hr minimum wage. Honestly, I would have opened the Fram plant, even with union. But the FRAM plant may have been in worse shape, I'm not sure which has the better...

Right now I"m driving a '14 Nissan Versa Note. It is my only vehicle, and would like to tow and haul in a "bed". The Versa is a no tow, and no bed. I'm looking around, and the primary use will be a commuter, 55 miles per day. So economic efficiency will be important. I looked at the Sata...

Inflation is caused by TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT SPENDING. Some talk about going back to the GOLD STANDARD, but that is a terrible ideal, as economics change so fast, and such disparity that we would lose all are gold and be in a great depression. The very reason we left the gold standard to begin...

The late Great Friedman would point to the massive stimulus (government spending) and the surge in money supply during and after the pandemic as the primary driver.

From former employees, they sure hated Champ Labs. Always hiring temps and letting them go. Overworked underpaid, screwed over by that unsufferable CEO crook. At least Fram was union.

1st tier supplier to everyone in N.A. except Chrysler umbrella.

BTW what is this trend of ditching the microwave oven? BK used to have microwaves and that guaranteed a hot sandwich. Then they said "it's made fresh so don't need a microwave, the patty will melt the cheese" Ever since then, I have received cold food on multiple occasions. GTFO!

they advertise them for shade around here, but they not that great other than growing fast...

Huh, I thought EV's were dead, according to Honda, cancelling already built programs...billions of writedowns, and then this from the big T? Who made the right decision?

that "free" ounce or two is yours, you paid for it. If others leave it in the hose, their loss.

Illiois basin is just itching for a Fracking BOOM. It was held back the first time because of lacking IDNR rules, now we have rules, but we need 100+ oil to make it worthwhile. Strata-X had proven 300 barrels per day was possible.. back in 2014, but oil prices crashed. and they left.

well, many ARE sitting at home, more than ever, making Youtube/Gofundme/onlyfans videos, and sitting around at home smoking pot, banging potatoes, unemployed, living at parents rent free, and have alcoholism. A top ten LOLcow on KiwiFarms, that dresses like a pirate... Styxhexhammer666 He is...

I will say, Honda is a very demanding customer... send them one defective assembly and it's a quality emergency; all hell breaks loose. A really big deal. The line is designed for 45pcs per hour, and they make orders for 55pcs per hour, and will not support adding additional machines to meet...

Okay, 100 years out was hyperbole. The rest I find true. Name me one American manufacturing company the people are actually happy to work for? They are not that common.
