I really hope someone at a state university buys one of these, rips it apart, figures out how to 3D print each and every component, and circulates the blueprints. Sovereign immunity, motherfuckers!
How does GE become they in just a few words separation in the same sentence?And yeah, here's the trump administration's effort to fuck up again without even trying. How stupid can those fucking people be?
I hate to say it, but there actually does appear to be some merit to the "perverse incentives" idea that Graham (I think it was?) floated. Several people in my nonprofit sphere have suggested that nonprofits fire their people, get them on unemployment (and pay the self-insured premium, about half of payroll in most cases) but ask the staff to then "volunteer" their time (this is an old nonprofit trick, just not usually on this scale). These manufacturers may also be seeing no downside because of the generous benefits, especially as most are maintaining health care; they're just shifting payroll to the CARES Act.
In that case, Lindsay was wrong then. He said we individuals would all quit our jobs so that we could stay home and get money for nothingBut what you are describing is that businesses are trying to lighten the load by overburdening the systemIE: Capitalism strikes again
Yeah, but in that case Graham got it backwards. It's not the employees who want to collect unemployment and sit on their asses. It's their employers who want to take advantage of the bailout to save a shit ton of money in salaries.

Oh... I so need one of those.

I love me some Groucho, I will admit.
Trump could simply order them to be manufactured and sold within the US at cost under the Defense Production Act, but he's a very stable genius.
Nope, because they're also now a rare commodity. https://www.sacbee.com/news...
Likewise. XD

it helps that most businesses these days do not think of future profit and are only concerned with today's.
GE already makes ventilators.this a thousand times this
yeah but upfist for the sequel idea. It will never NOT be the sequel to Atlas Shrugged from here on out.
Hmm. Yes. That would put Pence in charge, so there is that.
Make sure that you keep the Ferrari ones apart. The older models have a tendency to not like the newer models upstaging them.
