NEW: This small Tennessee town is charting a future for the working class. It’s home to one of the biggest new manufacturing projects in America — building Ford’s EV truck. Workers say it changed their lives. It could be a preview of an economic boom for communities everywhere.

Great story but isn't Ford cutting back on EV?

@CalebHemmer Democrats need to be using this! I am from middle TN and never heard of this. TN is dark red especially rural areas. Ppl need to know that their TN republican confess members voted against the law which made this happen!!

This is a propaganda video trying to embellish the merit of the inflation reduction act. The government is incapable of “reorganizing the economy” that is achieved through supply and demand. Essentially what is going on here is the government is spending all our hard earned money to subsidize industries that are green in name only. Not only do electric vehicles have a larger carbon footprint, nobody wants to buy them.

I, too, love watching massive corporations exploit workers for billions in profits and giving them scraps, all the while shuttering their factories once margins aren't what they want. Corporate benefactors are just predators.

Update: Contractors reporting that they aren’t being paid

Can you guys solve this shit?

They have slowed production to align with demand. Blue Oval is under construction now to open in 2025. Fingers crossed the market supports this transition.

Alot of union workers went there.

More of this, please

Thanks for highlighting!
