It’s unimaginable that anyone could still have faith in the Biden Administration’s accelerated plans to force Americans to buy electric vehicles after reading today’s extraordinary report by CNBC auto writer Michael Wayland revealing just how little thought and preparation has gone into the conversion.
Wayland also reveals that when it comes to ensuring that first responders are properly trained to extinguish EV fires, GM is the far more responsible company.
The EPA’s proposal last week effectively requiring that electric vehicles comprise more than 60 percent of U.S. auto sales by the end of the decade made clear that America’s EV conversion isn’t being overseen by competent and experienced bureaucrats. That shouldn’t come as a surprise: Michael Regan, the head of the EPA, has never run a business.
America was a deeply divided country in the early to mid-70s, and U.S. marketers created brilliant advertising promoting harmony and laughter. America is again divided, but today’s marketers have agendas and seek to fan the flames of anger and discontent. Alissa Heinerscheid, who oversees marketing at Bud Light, is responsible for the latest furor, which sadly will likely blow over in short order.
I’d welcome making an example of Bud Light.
Given that President Biden hailed Ford as one of America’s exemplary companies in his State of the Union Address last year and the entrenched media promotes Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as a worthy presidential candidate, the controversial relationship between Blue Oval and “Big Gretch” is of national interest, particularly when China factors heavily into the equation.
A recent Ford announcement and more disclosures about China’s planned electric battery plants in the Great Lakes state serve as warnings of the economic and national security dangers if Whitmer ever occupied the White House.
WARNING: If you consider American CEO compensation obscene, the 2022 pay package Ford awarded Jim Farley is hardcore pornographic.

The Wall Street Journal reported today on a survey that revealed Americans are overwhelmingly negative about the economic futures and doubt their children’s lives will be better than their own. Indications are the economic situation is far more dire than Americans fear.
Toxic wokeness has become so pervasive that even a Harvard Business School professor and a Nobel Laureate now argue that if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it’s definitely not a duck.
