I hate this world.

DETROIT — About 3,000 white-collar workers at Ford Motor Co. will lose their jobs as the company cuts costs to help make the long transition from internal combustion vehicles to those powered by batteries.
————————————
The job losses come at a time of unprecedented change in the auto industry that for more than 100 years has made a living by selling petroleum-powered vehicles. Governments across the globe are pushing to eliminate combustion automobiles to mitigate the impact of climate change.

The Ford EV's are apparently being built in Mexico as well.
They put in the "Inflation bill" (Green new world bill is more accurate) that the cars need to be built in North America. Not the US.

We are the only country in the World that buy into the climate change bull crap!
The money we have spent on climate change and Ukraine we could give the money back to our own people!!
This climate change crap doesn’t matter as long as China is doing whatever the hell it wants!!!!

So some pencil pushers catering to ESG are losing their jobs?

White collar jobs *typically* are not union.

Grid can't come close to handling the EVs, and that is assuming that people could afford them anyway in a Stagflation economy that will require massive money printing just to take care of illegals and the unemployed.
Your point is spot on but an understatement, FB. Truth be known, they are crashing the whole thing.

It is affecting salaried workers only, no union workers are losing their jobs.
Edit: according to the article

I am not going to buy one. Let Ford get stuck with EVs it can't sell.
