Thinking about posting "trump" all by itself in a post. Maybe even throwing a little playful misspelling in there. Much to think about.

What a loving baffling use of the DPA. Laser target one company to manufacture a product they do not have anything to do with manufacturing.

If the optics weren't so bad, I'm sure this poo poo would be immediately fought by GM and in a normal country it would be immediately investigated what with the whole publicly known story of president deals failing to art of the deal over the very substance of this declaration.

apparently there's actually a ventilator manufacturer involved, GM is presumably just bringing the scale

quote:

General Motors will manufacture ventilators that are crucial to fighting the worst symptoms of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. One thousand members of the automaker’s unionized workforce will build the equipment for ventilator company Ventec Life Systems at GM’s factory in Kokomo, Indiana, which has been shut down during the pandemic. The goal is to eventually make 10,000 ventilators per month, according to GM and Ventec, but the companies didn’t say how long it would take to reach that output.

GM will also start making surgical masks, a critical component for health care workers, at its idled factory in Warren, Michigan, next week. The automaker plans to make 50,000 masks per day within two weeks, with a possible total output of 100,000 per day.

those mask numbers don't seem very big, but an auto factory probably doesn't have much equipment that can be repurposed to make those

Yeah but the joke was that a deformed workers state would definitely have already killed the kirks and shapiros long before we got to this point, and instead of being mad on the internet I’d be mad at some pa speakers up on a utility pole outside my shack that wakes me up at noon to tell me the general that relinquished the nation to the new president was just made lifetime ruler by the president, which is a vastly superior way to have ones spirit crushed.
