Well, what's the purpose of a free trade agreement when it can be abrogated on the whim of a rapist.

They're thinking of getting before the US economy is half the size it used to be, and labor is 1990s China cheap

Shame to see bullying work

I hate everything about Trump and what his regime is doing but I honestly don’t understand why Honda building their cars in the US isn’t a positive for US workers and consumers - if there are tariffs or not.

tazareen.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Because as usual, some companies suck up to Dump and get to bypass his idiotic tariffs. He will still destroy small businesses.

doyoulikepizza.bsky.social•6 hours ago

Pfffft, angling for that exception to today’s tariffs by pointing to the bright shiny thing over there.

Is it cynical to suggest this urge to produce more in the lower 48 simply won’t last?

Who fucking buys Honda these days?....

Yeah definitely not a maga lie

So, made in America, huh? Well, where do you think parts come from? Not here. The only part of this that’s made in America is the labor, which is off the chain, here in US. (Cost wise) … the prices will still go up for sure. I hate to know what the ticket price is for hybrid or full electric cost?

godlessatheist.bsky.social•5 hours ago

And of course Honda will be employing state of the art robotics in the new plant to eliminate the need of dealing with pesky unionized human workers, so it’s definitely a win-win for capitalism.

And will use cheap Mexican immigrants! Otherwise, it will be too expensive!

Japon and South Korea is in the axis of evil now.
If they want to trust a guy like Trump, They will learn the hard way .

Indiana?

sail2it.bsky.social•6 hours ago

Automakers bending the knee? Guess I’ll add Honda to my boycott list.

Me too✊🏻

Sorry, isn’t avoiding tariffs that would go straight to the Trump admin better? Honda already makes the Accord in Indiana, with the same powertrain, so it’s not like they’d have to invest a crazy amount of money.

sail2it.bsky.social•4 hours ago

As a Canadian we have Honda plants here. The job loses with the 3x add on affect across the economy of the towns where they are located would be crippling. Never mind GM, Ford, Chrysler, VW trying to avoid tariffs.

lancecampeau.bsky.social•2 hours ago

Canada is getting a fat dose of what it deserves.

We wouldn't be in this mess if Canadians had chose to elect a competent, business oriented conservative leadership instead of the virtue signalling Liberal failureship of Justin Trudeau and his ilk.

Canada is finished.

You may like it better over on Twitter with the other Nazis.

Since the article is about the Civic Hybrid specifically, I would hope that means the CR-V would still be made there. Better margins on that vehicle and that segment of the market will only keep growing.

i8dc.bsky.social•3 hours ago

How do you write this article without ANY mention, either from the company or from an industry insider, on how much this change will increase the sticker price?

sdbud.bsky.social•6 hours ago

I’m not against building in the states (with parts from somewhere else) but sticker shock will get worse.

castertroy911.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Tarrifs aren’t necessarily a bad thing if it’s something you already have the infrastructure to produce. But if you have no real ability to produce something right off the batt it hurts you. But the retaliatory tariffs are what hurts. Especially in a consumption based economy like ours.

@reuters I keep getting a message that I’ve been blocked and I just bought a subscription 2 weeks ago! How can I troubleshoot this???

keritakahashi.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Often if you Google the issue, you will get a decent answer, this guy says it's a cookie issue

Thank you- appears to be fixed now! I shouldn’t look at these things before coffee I get all paranoid.

I just got this message from a different website (not news) as well. Lmk if you figure it out.

Seems to be working again now. I assume it’s some kind of hack to get you to click the link? Ugh all of this is so exhausting.

Well that's gross. Fuck Honda I guess.

atulharia.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Shame nobody in the US will have jobs or money to buy the cars after Doge has finished it's "work".
Still, #FuckHonda for giving in to Nazis.
#FuckNazis
