GM laying off staff in software and services division- Did Trump just gain 600 voters from Michigan?

[shockedcanadian]

I am not going to suggest that the Free Market doesn't have to work. I am going to suggest that China is flooding the auto industry. You should see some of the new models they have in China, they look awfully similar to German made vehicles. As soon as Germany entered the U.S market, China started to steal IP and produce similar vehicles. Probably even functionally comparable engines for all we know.

GM cutting some jobs. I suppose the U.S consumer isn't as strong as it once was.

GM laying off staff in software and services division

GM is laying off employees in its software and services division. The Detroit-based automaker did not specify the total number of workers affected by the move.

CNBC reported on Monday that the layoffs will impact a total of more than 1,000 workers within the automaker’s software and services unit. They are global in nature.

GM said the company "must simplify for speed and excellence, make bold choices, and prioritize the investments that will have the greatest impact" as the company "build GM's future."

If these are the norm, maybe if there is a big turn out, only 350 of them vote.

But in the end this was done to increase "shareholder value". People who never lift a finger to create a single car wanted more money.

Shareholders should be on the production line earning the pittance the assembly workers do.

Tell us about your trips to China where you saw these cars.

No. People won't be voting for an administration that will increase incentives for corporations to lay of people to increase shareholder value.

If your would read your own link you would see they did not say they were laying off all 600.

No confused one, it is not fake news

The layoffs affect 600 employees in Warren, Michigan, where GM has its Global Technical Center. The automaker didn't specify the overall number affected by the cuts.

Not after Trump chuckled it up with the South African Vampire about firing UAW workers.

GM plants closed when the dooshbag was in office. And you ask dumb fucking questions.

Wait now. I just report the facts. Will they vote Democrat or support Trump and a recharged economy?

Clearly the economy isn't as strong as some are promoting. Not that most don't understand this even after $7T was borrowed and flooded into the economy.

You did not report the facts, the facts are they did not say how many of the 600 were being laid off.

You lied

So much fear in the forum tonight...

A little appreciated fact is that middle and upper management jobs are also lost during business downturns or restructuring. It's not just the 'shop floor' that is affected.

The OP is a lie, GM did not say they were cutting all 600 jobs there
