But the Motor City’s health will depend on more than motor cars

Detroit on September 14th and 15th were given two quite different views of its future. On the 14th, the opening day of the first North American International Auto Show to be hosted in Detroit since 2019, they watched through a window as Joe Biden clambered into a new bright-orange petrol-powered Chevrolet Corvette, and later drove an electric Cadillacacross the floor. In a speech that followed, the president, a self-professed “car guy”, drew a direct link between cars and prosperity.

Now the city leadership is once again banking on the car industry to drive its economic recovery, even as it tries to tear down some of the car-related infrastructure of the past. Will it work? Yet Detroit has recovered better than might have been hoped, says Gabriel Ehrlich, of the University of Michigan, largely thanks to the creation of blue-collar jobs. Many are in construction; a new bridge is being built. But car factories are also opening. Near Hamtramck, an independent enclave surrounded by Detroit, General Motors has converted an old plant into an assembly centre for electric vehicles named “Factory Zero”.

Different forms of exploitation might be a novelty. For a time.

A society is like a V8 motor! To run smoothly, all cylinders must fire in a coordinated sequence with all the other necessities that must come with it! Do we know what they are?!

Hillary Clinton & John McCain BOTH went to Detroit and told voters,”Auto jobs aren’t coming back (at any volume like in the “golden years”)… We need to retrain you for NEW jobs.” And they were both boo’d and practically chased out of the city. Americans need a reality check.

Not with the shit they're putting out, lipstick on a pig. Globalist NWO sellouts. GM Ford
