navyjack posted:Like to share this anecdote with y’all. he's not wrong the growth since trump was elected (hell, the growth since like 14) doesn't have much to show for it outside of just capital being pushed around and republicans are doing everything in their power to make it bigger i've been saying for months that poo poo's going down around tax time next year if republicans can't get the tax bill passed and i'm sticking to it

my work (architecture/engineering) is becoming a subsidiary of a huge engineering firm and one of the reason why the partners did this was the collapse coming sometime next year and they wanted to hitch their (the employees) futures to a much larger boat to weather the coming storm

FCKGW posted:LA doesn't want the hyperloop and they're building out light rail like crazy, should have a pretty solid public transportation network by the time the olympics roll around this is true the firm i work for is doing an absolute rear end load of work on infrastructure for LA, most of it revolving around the increased light rail and subway expansion projects poo poo one project is worth like $10m... just for the engineering side of it iirc the total project cost is like $600m this is for 1/2 of the huge LAX expansion that ties in the subway/light rail that's in downtown along with removing a ton of car congestion at the airport proper

the only cool thing about gm is that they have a few really good small diesel engines that are US legal and get great mileage... but gently caress buying the cars that they are attached to

Scionix posted:im honestly not sure why anyone would buy a not sports/luxury car that isnt a mazda/toyota/honda. I honestly cant even think of an american sedan/hatchback/SUV I would consider buying as an appliance car. Ford fusion maybe? no one makes an actual suv that's designed to go off road anymore except for subaru and jeep
