kayazere , to Work Reform in A labor win at Georgia school bus factory shows a worker-led EV transition is possible

I’m not for sure this is fair to call it worker led, as the company is a normal capitalist company, not a worker owned collective/co-op.

Is it insane that so much government money is going to a profit company, which is trying to make as much money as possible, in turn wasting government/tax payer money.

A "worker led" anything is possible. Look at how much fucking money private investors and executives remove from companies - companies are always far healthier when run by employee collectives and unions, while far less effective, still significantly improve long term prospects.

Also in Maine and voted for this. I’ve had a few conversations with folks during the past few months about it, and have for the most part managed to convince them to reconsider their “no” votes.

I live in Maine and voted for this. CMP is so corrupt.

Why do they have an “In God We Trust” banner? 🙄

Vodulas , to U.S. News in EV makers Tesla and Rivian signed a right-to-repair pact, but the fight over who controls the car data continues

Seems like not sharing the telematic data might be a way for dealers and automaker owned shops to circumnavigate the right to use independent shops in the future. If we want these cars to last, we need to keep repair prices reasonable, and options for shops is one way to do that.

So yeah we destroyed the world but for a brief period we created great value for the shareholders.

This is the most important point! Also, trickle down economy works great, just look at the status of the world. /s

Good, now only if they could get my bill somewhere reasonable and not like Hawaii prices. Eversource is ridiculous.

I’m sure this will have a positive effect long-term on that front.
