    I love how corporate handouts to already insanely wealthy companies are cool, but paying for shit like healthcare and housing for our own people gets decried as communism or some other silly bullshit.

    It would be cheaper in the long run to fund initiatives like that (never mind it would be the Christian thing to do, despite opponents of such things loudly claiming to be Christians). Instead, we prop up corporations that get to privatize profits while the public often pays for their mistakes and losses.

      Don’t give them credit they haven’t earned. It’s the secular thing to do.

      We can’t have truly affordable EV’S that the rest of the world gets because of subsidies but no strings attached handouts to millionaire owners are somehow okay

    Wait, Stellantis? The hodgepodge collection of like 15 different brands that is currently headquartered in Europe, and has formed a JV with Leapmotor to do all their EV stuff? Lobbying FTW I guess.
