It's not what your country can do for you.... but what you can do for your country.... Our country has forgotten that.... - and wants the government to pay for a 1/4 of their ev cars.... and retirement at 30.....

POLITICS? - THIS IS ALL POLITICS in a VERY BROKEN COUNTRY !

Why not pay for EVs? The US Government directly subsidizes the Oil industry for decades now. This is a major factor as to why gasoline is not $12/gallon right now.

Looks like the tariff threat might already be working with Mexico...
A politician claiming credit for something doesn't mean the politician deserves credit for the thing, or even that the thing is really happening or new.

My understanding is that migrants needed to travel together for safety, but that Mexico has been breaking up all known caravans, and shipping people back to southern Mexico to discourage them, for about a year now.

Best wishes!

No, I’m their arch nemesis millennial
What to you qualifies as a “boomer-type post”? And by using “their”, are you stating that you are the enemy of every person in the baby boomer generation, or vice versa?

Dooming & glooming over things that haven’t even occurred, usually centered around politics where the sky is perpetually falling - most often seen on Facebook rants.

Aha, so that is something only boomers do. And by the same kind of vacuous thinking, one may conclude that all millennials define reality through a broad-brush, mindless, narcissistic lens? Or is that just you?

LG and Samsung are Korean and are not likely to be highly targeted but some rivian components are made in China. I agree that many of these things are negotiating tactics to get what someone really wants.

Bro must live under a rock. I'm a proud Gen-X'er and still see at least a half-dozen clickbait or humor posts about "boomers vs millennials" every day, or how "millennials are ruining everything", etc. It's funny. Don't take it so serious. ?

Man, that owner age poll is really showing with all these boomer type posts
Generalizations such as this are as much BS as the posts I believe you refer. Viewing politics through an ageist lens is at best counterproductive and will often lead to false beliefs and conclusions. "Gen X is lazy". Gen Y is "blah, blah, blah".

And that is precisely what makes it NOT funny.

If you are willing to characterize those as "boomer" type posts, you might not be paying attention to who voted for who and by implication supports what type of policies. Hint: "Boomers" also enacted many of the polices that are now being reversed.
