https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2017-03-23/inside-alabama-s-auto-jobs-boom-cheap-wages-little-training-crushed-limbs Good article on how southern manufacturing jobs are coming back, but without unions, workers are underpaid, undertrained, and worked too hard. quote:On June 18, Elsea was working the day shift when a computer flashed “Stud Fault” on Robot 23. Bolts often got stuck in that machine, which mounted pillars for sideview mirrors onto dashboard frames. Elsea was at the adjacent workstation when the assembly line stopped. Her team called maintenance to clear the fault, but no one showed up. A video obtained by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration shows Elsea and three co-workers waiting impatiently. The team had a quota of 420 dashboard frames per shift but seldom made more than 350, says Amber Meadows, 23, who worked beside Elsea on the line. “We were always trying to make our numbers so we could go home,” Meadows says. “Everybody was always tired.”

Lol you think trump will try and kick turkey out of NATO eventually? They have been huge dicks lately but it would be nice to have another ally in the middle east that doesn't export terror like KSA (well not much). Russia would love it though, I wonder how long Georgia would last

So every bat poo poo insane " " " conservative " " " measure they tack on to the republicare bill alienates moderates and republican representatives not gerrymandered into mega-blood-red districts that know they'll be turbo hosed when people start losing care. Meanwhile the whack job fundie gently caress faces of the (god drat I really hate this name) freedom caucus don't get to bathe in the blood of the innocent and, quite literally given pre-birth and maternal care in this bill/country, sacrifice newborns to their funding masters so they'll say no to anything short of that. Wow, who knew health care could be so complicated? Good thing we have a master of the art of the deal using the bigliest, most yugely great negotiation tactics like stamping his feet and throwing a temper tantrum.

This is why gerrymandering hurts everyone. There's a significant population of congressional republicans who are at bigger risk of being primaried by even crazier wingnuts, who have never had to govern, and were never elected to govern. Just to stand on principle and make big blustering speeches.
