"American car sales have been lagging behind their competitors for years. Ford and General Motors, once lions of the industry, now have a smaller market share than Toyota, Volkswagen, or Honda.

This isn’t because our major competitors are blocking American cars from entering their markets. It’s because people just don’t want our cars.

American manufacturers have tried to adapt to global tastes. Ever heard of the Ford Puma? You probably haven’t because Ford doesn’t even sell the small crossover here — it does sell it across Europe. To America’s credit, it was actually the bestselling car in the United Kingdom last year.

But a quick look at the list of most popular cars in the UK will show you that the Puma and the Model Y were the only American cars to hit the top 10 last year. For many consumers, American cars aren’t considered as reliable as Japanese models or as plush and tech-forward as German or Korean ones.

And even Chinese vehicles, which were once considered a non-entity in the global race, are starting to exceed Tesla in winning the race for the most electric vehicle (EV) sales.

One reason why that might be is due to cost, but there’s also build quality. Teslas are known to have fantastic software and not-so-fantastic hardware, with panel gaps, creaks/rattles, and unevenly applied paint being endemic problems for their cars. One thing Build Your Dreams (BYD), the big Chinese EV company understands, is that you don’t want to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a vehicle that feels like it was put together by a toddler with a Lego set."

Does Anybody in the Trump White House Understand the Automotive Trade?The American Saga
Venetian Stories podcast

The 1400s and 1500s were centuries of enormous change for Venice, and for the rest of the world. The changing geography moved Venice from a central position in European trade to the margins.

Vote In Or Out 🇺🇸 on Instagram: "In his 2017 Netflix special “Equanimity,” comedian #DaveChappelle humorously critiqued the notion of repatriating manufacturing jobs from countries like China to the United States. He quipped, “I’m gonna go to China, and I’m gonna get those jobs from China and bring them back here to America… So iPhones can be $9,000? Leave that job in China where it belongs.” Chappelle further jested, “I want to wear Nikes. I don’t want to make them shits.” His remarks underscore the complexities and potential economic ramifications of relocating large-scale manufacturing operations back to the U.S.  Analysts have echoed Chappelle’s sentiments, highlighting significant challenges in moving iPhone production to the United States. Estimates suggest that such a move could increase the cost of an iPhone to between $30,000 and $100,000, primarily due to the lack of necessary manufacturing infrastructure and skilled labor in the U.S. Additionally, labor costs in the U.S. are substantially higher than in China, where assembly labor costs about $30 per phone compared to an estimated $300 per phone domestically. This disparity raises questions about the feasibility of American workers performing the same tasks at comparable wages, suggesting that such a transition may not be economically viable.  #Hashtags: #DaveChappelle #iPhoneManufacturing #USChinaTrade #LaborCosts #ManufacturingJobs — Help this information get to more voters. 🇺🇸 A well-informed electorate is a prerequisite to Democracy.—Thomas Jefferson We don’t want to do the jobs we have here we don’t need more jobs. Shit, we need more workers to work what we have. repost @khrisroyal"Instagram

The EU has proposed scrapping tariffs on all industrial goods traded with the US, in a bid to stave off the US “reciprocal duties” set to enter into force this week.

The “zero-for-zero” offer extends to cars, pharmaceuticals, rubber, plastic, machinery, and other industrial products.

Lotus Blossom espionage group targets multiple industries with different versions of Sagerunex and hacking tools

The Lotus Blossom espionage group has been conducting cyber espionage campaigns targeting government, manufacturing, telecommunications, and media sectors in the Philippines, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The group employs various versions of the Sagerunex backdoor, including new variants that use cloud services like Dropbox, Twitter, and Zimbra for command and control. Lotus Blossom utilizes multiple hacking tools and techniques to maintain long-term persistence in compromised networks. The attacks involve multi-stage operations, including reconnaissance, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. The group has been active since at least 2012 and continues to evolve its tactics and malware to evade detection.
