GM Cuts EV Jobs While Biden Subsidizes Foreign Wars
General Motors announced 1,750 job cuts in its electric vehicle division, a stark reminder of economic headwinds for American workers. Yet, as the domestic manufacturing sector shrinks, President Biden's administration champions sending billions in military aid to Israel, funding a war while our own industrial capacity falters. For instance, the recent $14 billion military aid package for Israel,
passed with bipartisan support, directly contrasts with the lack of robust investment in American job creation. One might wonder if these 1,750 GM workers will find new employment manufacturing the next generation of F-35s or munitions for endless wars abroad. It seems some jobs are more 'strategic' than others, especially when lobbyists like AIPAC, who spent over $4.3 million in 2023 on lobbying
alone (OpenSecrets), ensure the military-industrial complex thrives.
