There's a reason some companies stopped making sedans and smaller cars  If they can't make a profit building them... then they won't build them.  You don't just turn on a dime and convert a plant into something else.  It costs billions.

Is there something about the CAFE standards that is artificially driving production of certain types of vehicles?

Many vehicles that we used to consider an SUV are now CUV's based on car platforms.

 

 

I'm torn about the Mustang Mach-E.   I really like my sedan.  I like having a vehicle that fits in a parking spot.

I understand, but I'm still curious about the term "radical traditional Catholic" Radical and traditional don't usually go together.  

I think the language works to locate someone as a militant Vatican II rejecter.

That should win her enough support to win all the people whose jobs are threatened.  Nobody wants to be seen as a crybaby about the career they spent their life building!

Federal Reserve release this month's CPE number - up 0.4%. The markets tanked on the news (down 2%) and the Atlanta Fed is forcasting a 2.8% *contraction* in GDP for the 1st quarter. The last one does not seem credible without a lot more unemployment though....Maybe that's coming.

The Federal Reserve doomed the Biden presidency by leaving money too loose during Covid, they may have doomed the Trump Presidency by loosening too fast under Biden.

It is a death cult.

The sad part is that it is wittingly or unwittingly supported by 75% of the country.

There is no coming back from any of this.

If there is any coming back from it, you and I won’t live to see it.

The addiction of voters to Trump reminds me of the Berlusconi phenomenon in Italy. That did play itself out, but Silvio wasn't half the maleficent agent Trump is.
