A shortage of semiconductor chips continues to impact both automotive industry employees and those looking to buy a car. Industry analysts say the shortage could last through the end of the year and possibly into 2022. "The microchip crisis is probably the worst crisis I’ve seen in the auto industry, at least in my career, in terms of supply chain," General Motors President Mark Reuss told Fox Business. General Motors has idled several plants across the country in the last several weeks as the lack of semiconductors meant vehicles could not be made.

Just keep your old ones going. Prices for new are just too high for the actual value of the vehicle.

The article mentions "global shortage" and shortages "around the world" but there is no mention of where the chips are manufactured. China, perhaps?

I bought a Chevy Colorado a year ago. Yesterday, I took it to the dealer for an oil change. They had absolutely no Colorados in stock. None. And they had a total of three new Silverados on the lot. Normally they would have about 15-20 Colorados and at least 50 Silverados. Not now they don't. One of the salesmen asked me if I'd trade in my Colorado. I said that I'd still need a truck and they don't have any. Looks like a picked a good time to buy a truck.

Car manufacturers will do what the smart phone people have done. They will make them so that when the battery goes dead you need a new one.

As a member of a classic car club, and the owner/driver of a couple of classics, I think I can handle it. I don't need a vehicle that parks itself, tells me I'm too close to the car in front and that there is something behind me.

Globalists want maximum profit not American's working to support their self and families. 'U.S. companies have led the world in chip technology for decades, but, only about 12% of the world’s semiconductor manufacturing is done in America'. https://fortune.com/2020/06/30/america-tech-semiconductor-manufacturing-investment/ Semiconductors are the engine of the global economy—and America isn’t making enough of them. by Keith Jackson June 30, 2020 As the brains of modern technology, semiconductors are essential to America’s economic strength, its national security, and its response to the COVID-19 pandemic and future crises. U.S. companies have led the world in chip technology for decades. But only about 12% of the world’s semiconductor manufacturing is done in America, owing largely to heavy subsidies from competing governments. Addressing this challenge and strengthening U.S. semiconductor manufacturing and research is the space race of our time. America’s economic growth and national security rely on cutting-edge semiconductors to stay ahead of global competitors. Looking forward, the country that leads in advanced chip design and production also will have a big leg up in the global race to deploy new game-changing technologies, such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing.

We have a lot of idle facilities in the USA because the chip production was moved offshore. It will take time to bring that back. Biden's policies won't help. One really important concern is the ability to produce military equipment and supplies. I suspect we can't even produce uniforms for the troops. If our government had any sense we would be adjusting taxation and tariffs to assure essential industries stayed in the USA.

That is what happens when you rely on off-shore manufacturing. These Harvard Business school geniuses aren't old enough or studied what happened during world wars when vital items were imported. If there is a war or crisis and shipping is limited you are in serious trouble. Import pocket books, and clothes, but not strategic items.

#20 - I work in defense electronics. When it comes to chips, crystals, PWB's, and other critical components needed for today's communications and combat systems you can count on one hand the number of approved and RELIABLE U.S. manufacturers. It's fortunate that they cater to defense, which means they're expensive and therefore too expensive for the commercial market. Otherwise, the lead times would be even longer. We occasionally have to turn to suppliers in France but those lead times are guaranteed to be long.

Why is it just GM and Ford that have these problems?. I was talking to an old friend last week, who lives in Kansas City. He just bought a new Subaru Outback. I asked him if he’d had any problem finding one, since I’d heard about production slowdowns related to chip shortages. He said he’d called three dealerships within 10 miles or so of his home, and they all had several in stock. He found just what he wanted. About 20 years ago, I decided I would never buy another vehicle made by a U.S. manufacturer using union labor. My car repair bills have declined precipitously since then.

Until my recent retirement, I dealt professionally and extensively with several of the automotive OEM's, beginning with GM in the early 1980's. There is almost no account of incredibly stupid crap required by the bean-counters that have long mis-ruled that operation. Ford is little better, if at all. Blame the unions if you wish, but the origins of these problems go to the upper levels rather quickly. Lee Iacocca and H. Ross Perot were right, probably too kind in fact. And again, The lousy policies of the MBA's and accountants come home to roost.

Sorry hit submit too soon! $1000. We told the kid to go elsewhere because we always thought rotors on brakes could be grinded the first time brakes were needed. The new mechanic said they don't make them like that anymore. When you need brakes now, you need rotors too. The first mechanic was still lying, there is about 25% left on those brakes.

When U.S. Catholic bishops hold their next national meeting in June, they'll be deciding whether to send a tougher-than-ever message to President Joe Biden and other Catholic politicians: Don´t receive Communion if you persist in public advocacy of abortion rights. At issue is a document that will be prepared for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops by its Committee on Doctrine, with the aim of clarifying the church's stance on an issue that has repeatedly vexed the bishops in recent decades. It's taken on new urgency now, in the eyes of many bishops, because Biden.... is the first to hold that office while espousing clear-cut support for abortion rights.

Two years later, in 1974, the Delaware Democrat was the subject of a 4,000-plus-word Washingtonian profile, but not for anything he had accomplished in office. “I have no illusions about why I am such a hot commodity,” Biden told Kitty Kelley. “I am the youngest man in the Senate and I am also the victim of a tragic fate which makes me very newsworthy.”

A cold wind is blowing through the entertainment industry. And it comes with opportunistic purges of the 'older white men' filling its ranks. Whenever I speak to anyone in the industry, cancel culture looms large over the conversation. There's an industry within the industry looking for provocations to set off another purge and demand a change in leadership in order to take it over. That's just how critical race theory works. This story tangentially involves me because the real target was the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the Golden Globes. You'll recall Ricky Gervais doing his thing at the 2020 Golden Globes. That sort of thing will go by the wayside.

When a white police officer in Ohio shot and killed Ma’Khia Bryant, stopping her from plunging a butcher knife into the chest of an unarmed black teenager, the racial melodrama that is destroying the very fabric of American society reached what the “woke” refer to as an “inflection point.” At that moment, the narrative of the national lynch mob – verdict first, due process be damned – collided with an impossible reality: a white cop saving the life of a black child. Unable to resolve this dilemma, the woke mob simply refused to see it. It was left to Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors to formulate their denial bluntly...

A lot of her sentences now begin with "Well, I mean," signaling the intellectual vacuity she's settled for, as though she's completely given up on trying to sound smart.

During an appearance on Canadian radio show Monday, a Barnard College English instructor discussed with a Jewish host a passage from his new book about how he would gas white people in a locked room “when the race war hits its crescendo.” (Snip) When this race war hits its crescendo, I’ll gather you all into a beautifully decorated room under the pretense of unity. I’ll give a speech to civility and all the good times we share; I’ll smile as we raise glasses to your good, white health, while the detonator blinks under the table, knowing the exits are locked and the air vents filled with gas.

Late last week Portland, Ore., Mayor Ted Wheeler took to video to plea for the community’s help to “unmask” antifa. The violence-prone anarchist-fascist group has terrorized Portland with months of violent and destructive insurrectionist riots despite Joe Biden merely calling antifa an “idea.” Someone purporting to represent antifa has responded to Wheeler with a new video. In this video, the masked individual pushes anti-American themes and publishes Wheeler’s home address. The individual finishes the disturbing presentation with a veiled threat to kill Mayor Wheeler.
