And ford took more money from Biden's green energy plan. Ford is definitely guilty as fuck as slurping up government surplus and firing workers the second they stop making them a profit.
I love how the OP said Ford never took a bailout, you reply confirming that, and OP gets downvoted into oblivion.
Welcome to Lemmy. I swear this place is worse than Reddit at reading comprehension and mob-mentality downvoting.
I don't really know what's going on so I'm just gonna downvote everyone just in case.
I've found the same, but that it really depends on the topic.
There were more than ten words. I didn't read it either.
They didn't confirm that Ford didn't receive a bailout just that Ford didn't participate in TARP. Ford took a $7B government loan in 2009 and didn't even finish repaying it until last year. GM took their $8B bailout in 2009 and repaid it all in 2010.

I love all the high-horse "downvoting, mob-mentality, poor reading comprehension" comments in this thread when none of these people bothered to do more than read a single comment and click one link before assuming they had a full understanding of the facts.
15 downvotes is downvoted to oblivion?
Right there is the difference between Lemmy and Reddit!
Lemmy: 15 downvotes to oblivion
Reddit: Hold my beer!
Yeah, I guess there is a pretty significant population difference between the two. Sorry, I'm a new convert from Reddit xD
