      I think it's legalized wage theft. Those in upper management are so not worth what they get paid. They get outrageous salaries and bonuses, yet the company cannot give their employees any of that $179 million? Can't afford the people that actually do the work and extra day off? It's bullshit. No one person is worth that kind of money. It does not matter what kind of profits he is able to get for the company, if the company isn't taking care of ALL of it's employees. If they paid them well enough, they would have more dedication, more loyalty, be more agreeable, call in sick less often, etc. The list of benefits the company would get from taking care of it's employees is vast. I remember when a good 60-70% of the people of retirement age, had worked for the same company since they were a teenager or in their 20's. That's when companies took care of all of their employees, not just upper management.

      Black voters who so desperately need REAL change, in 2016, they followed corporate-owned, late John Lewis, voting for corporatist, Hillary.
      In 2020, these same black voters followed corporate-owned James Clyburne to corporatist Biden and propelled him to president.
      Both times, these same ppl turned their back on the progressive changer, Bernie. Why do they keep shooting themselves & really all of us in the foot repeatedly?

      In the age of far-right populism, this is an issue. He doesn't use thought-terminating cliches, so he gets ignored. When some yeehaw freedumb type gets up there and hoots and hollers on some Reaganomics bit, people who don't want to think believe that the thinking has been done for them already. Not only are we in the age of far-right populism, but we are also in an age where consumption is pushed hard to keep the money flowing upward as a supposed stimulus for the economy. This focus on consumption turns political and economic discourse into nothing more than a commodity, "content," to be consumed. You can see it all over the Internet. It's why Trump was allowed to stay on Twitter for as long as he was. He drove up their "engagement" metrics, which made Twitter more money. So, these pre-packaged partisan positions -- where both parties are neoliberal at best -- that I mentioned being hooted and hollered are the "content" that a lot of people like to consume. Sanders is very disadvantaged in this market, because his positions are not bite-sized and easily digested by people who feel a lot of demand on their time and energy and want someone else to do their thinking for them.
      I don't know that I would want Sanders to adapt to this market in that total way that a lot of politicians do, reducing everything to sound bites and feel-good USA #1 junk, but maybe he could take on a briefing-style approach to arguments like this. UA-camr "Beau of the Fifth Column" talks a lot about this style of communication, and it was pretty relevant to him in his military career. I encourage looking him up. The structure, essentially, is: Tell them what you're going to tell them, then tell them (this is the part Sanders did in this argument), then tell them what you told them. Maybe that sounds like repetition at first, but rather than just three of the same briefing, what it actually is is a summation strategy that accounts for people tuning you out when you get into specifics, and making sure that they either remember, or cannot be reasonably believed to have not heard, the core parts of the argument.

      They point to the recent shortages and supply issues, that affect production in Asia ( Taiwan and South Korea mostly.) They want to bolster US production in order to alleviate the reliance on what has been a ever increasing uncertainly over Taiwan in particular, so there is a somewhat valid aspect of it increasing production security.
      They really don't want people to be looking at their profits though.
      In the case of Intel, the 'planned' new plant in Ohio alone, would be about a 20bn$ investment, for which for that alone would get about 6bn$ of these subsidies. Building fabs is a very expensive outlay, but it does create a lot of jobs in the short term and in the long term, around 3000 very well paid jobs, and many more thousands of jobs in the vicinity.
      For some contrast, Germany is offering 7.3bn$ in subsidies for a planned Intel fab there, that would cost 19bn$.
      They are a publicly traded company, and would have a legal responsibility to make decisions that best benefit their stakeholders or shareholders.

      MeidasTouch is the new hot leftwing YT site. These 3 young guys are promoting young ppl to vote in this next very urgent election. Great. But then they show a video of Newsome scolding Gov DeathSentence just like he's a 5yo.. The comments were all cheerleading Newsome for this phony stunt, like "Yeah! That's who I want for president!".
      No policy from Newsome was stated. No guide given for what he wants US to be, nothing but this cosplay-like skit for braindead lefties to hoot & holler over.
      Trying to educate voters, especially youth to DEMAND MORE from democrats--I just keep shaking my head thinking no wonder USA is becoming a 3rd world country.

    @jkrigelman 2 роки тому +2

    I don't normally comment on things like this but I'm feeling special today. This is largely from an engineering perspective both in Hardware and Software engineering.
    I can say from 12+ years experience in this industry, most of our engineering jobs are absolutely being moved to lower cost regions for short-term profitability. This has been going on for longer than I been working in industry. For the past 5+ years, anytime we complain about being understaffed for what we need we get three options: get interns (good luck converting them to full-time employees), open a req in a "low cost geo" or get a contractor "from a low cost geo". I had to move groups several times as my job was scavenged by dominant teams that needed work, outsourced, or they simply refused to backfill people here in Arizona. The idea that any project can be effectively managed with a team of people scattered half a world away and be successful is... optimistic at best. Unfair to someone on the team at worst. It's been done but usually someone must suffer to fill that gap. And temporary work in engineering is a joke. It takes a lot of effort to ramp people up. So unless you just have remedial, mindless work, then your investing in the person you bring in.
    Much of the engineering outsourcing today is highly unlikely to come back unless you make it painful for companies for each head outsourced. From a bean counter point of view, you can get 5 engineers over in Asia for the cost of 1 here. Problem solved right? A bean is a bean? I been job shopping in Europe recently, you can get 2 or maybe 3 engineers for the cost of one here. And realize, that won't work, Europe already has an engineering problem. Because they have already been outsourcing their engineering jobs for years and are lacking the talent locally. Their economy and circle of influence is just not large enough to grow to support proper pay for the work required. From what I hear a bulk of that work is picked up by the cheapest bid in east Asia but, people like to have someone to blame so who really knows.
    The business side will always look for "cost cutting" for profitability. Long-term factors do not play into this at all with investors nor finance alike. The semi-conductor industry in US lately has struggled with keeping up with TSMC. The people that knew what it meant to make a good product that works on new technologies have moved on. Retired or so fed up with broken systems of Agile, Waterfall, politics, and general over complication of what should be simple processes... whatever their reason... they just left. Retention of engineers is a problem, you only get burned so many times before you find a new career instead of dealing with your current one. A lot of these guys are very smart, passionate, and motivated. If you piss them off, they are not sticking around. I'm not one of those guys I just take the beating. I have been lucky only in that I have not been involved in the death marches. 50 to 70 hour work weeks for months on end? 1 to 2 hour "standup meetings" every day. No thanks!
    Any profitability we are seeing at this point I honestly believe has a lot to do with cost cutting and outsourcing work or by simply raising product cost. Meaning the cost is passed to consumers or we ask way too much of our engineers. I think that the industry is finally seeing this and are trying to patch the holes and "regrow" engineering talent locally. Especially in light of Russia, backed by China, that these "investments" may not have been the best choice. Intel invests a good amount of time and money into STEM programs. But you will not see those returns for years if at all. We are barely maintaining the number of engineers we have. While China and India double year over year.
    www.nsf.gov/statistics/2016/nsb20161/#/report/chapter-2/international-s-e-higher-education
    In my engineering college 15 or 16 year ago (I'm getting old), most of my classmates were on student visas. Many of my coworkers over the years are on work visas or have immigrated over. I love these people to death, but, that means we could not find the talent here in the US and it was more efficient to immigrate someone over than to find the talent here. The last-last Intel CEO Brian Krzanich policy to layoff and ban about 15k employees back in 2016 probably didn't help matters.
    There is probably some analogy of a snake eating its tail here or something. My understanding of the solution space in order of likelihood to fantasy:
    - Customers will pay more for our products year over year. (I have a 15 year old computer and I get a discount on Intel products and it is still too expensive to upgrade.)
    - Outsourcing of more technical jobs. (Which further undervalues our US engineers.)
    - Engineers would need to be prepared for pay cuts and more grueling schedules. Which will largely discourage people to go into engineering fields as it would not be financially smart for our children to pay a bunch of money for an education into a field that is going to pay to recouped those costs. Educators are already feeling this right now and we replaced them with underpaid and unqualified staff. (Who wants that stress)
    - The cost of living in the US would have to come down. (US Inflation, greed... fat chance)
    - Hope for a "Childhood's End" or "The Expanse" unified world government? (All governments suck so pick your poison)
    - Upper management needs to trim their own fat and leave engineering alone. (Lets be honest, management will never take that hit.)
    - The free market will sort itself out. (HAHAHA)
    I think that the likely situation is the first three. Continue to raise prices of products, outsource more labor, and tell our engineers to suck it up your taking a cut.
    If Senator Sanders is president for a day and waves his magic pen, suddenly education is cheaper/free, executives are capped at a million dollars, and we lower cost of living across the board. Yeah that may stop the bleeding. But that puts us at the same disadvantage European engineers (again, I presume from what I been getting while looking at work). We may also lose some people that primarily went into engineering for the big pay checks but you cannot fault people for their priorities. The situation sucks but that said. I don't want my taxes to go into bailing out big corporations. It's a management/finance issue that they have created over years and now they have to eat the shit cake they baked.
