Largest gains for Dems dipshit, because they suck. Republicans have had much larger gains without 9 million more voters...….Jesus Christ are you stupid... Republicans also had 44 people retire...aka incumbents.....stick to the economy the rest is beyond you. |

Matty: no its not
speaking of the economy, go listen to the UTX CEO today. And also , what do you think of the 15,000 lost GM jobs in the heartland ? Guess what ? Cruise(GM autonomous unit) is hiring 15,000 in the Bay Area...Go tell your people to get an education or they will be eating Wonder Bread w Jif for the next 30 years..... |

Handwriting was on the wall for years with GM..Sedans don't sell anymore and they have been losing ground in other areas... They are in fine shape otherwise and are consolidating and cutting their loses.....and yes the tariffs didn't help.
We will be dead and gone before autonomous cars are the norm....thank god |

Funny. Most of the 44 retired because they knew Trump was toxic and would cost them their jobs. Without gerrymandering it would have been 60 seats in the House. Anti-gerrymandering reforms, backed by Arnie, passed wherever on the ballot. Winter is here. |

You must be old.... Cruise is launching next year, Waymo right behind, and 20 start-ups right behind them..... |

Gerrymandering works both ways dipshit.....I knew you would find some dumbass excuse......9 million more voters= marginal gains...does that register in your little mind at all.....That's like having 3 more players on the field and winning by a field goal......not very impressive. |

People don't want them, I certainly don't. Again they won't be the norm in our lifetime IMO.
I wouldn't invest in any of those startups. One major malfunction and it will be a ten year set back, humans hate not being in control. I can see a country wide software glitch or hack and 2 million cars crashing at the same time.... done!!!!
I'm also old enough to know things happen much slower than anyone thinks....50 years ago we were told about flying cars , life on the moon, and no more cancer......how's that worked out????? |

I find it fascinating, but I think the technology is not there yet. There are so many variables that the computers and sensors just can't deal with ATM. I was reading about I believe Santa Fe or some other SW town were they are doing a lot of road testing. The people out there hate them and called them a major nuisance, they are just not making human like decisions and causing major traffic issues.
Stick with pork belly's and gold ....much better off. |
